The 2020 OFC Nations Cup was originally to be the 11th edition of the OFC Nations Cup, the quadrennial international men's football championship of Oceania organised by the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) scheduled for 6 to 20 June 2020.[1]

The tournament was originally to be hosted by New Zealand, whose bid was chosen by the OFC on 10 January 2020.[2] A total of eight teams would compete in the final tournament.[3] New Zealand were the defending champions.

On 21 April 2020, OFC announced that due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the difficulty in rescheduling to another date in the FIFA International Match Calendar, the tournament would be cancelled.[4]
