The 2012 Copa del Rey final was the 110th final since the tournament's establishment (including two seasons where two rival editions were played). The match was contested by Athletic Bilbao and Barcelona on 25 May 2012 at the Vicente Calderón in Madrid. This was the clubs' first meeting in the final since 2009 where Barcelona won the trophy with a 4–1 victory. The same teams, the two with the most cup wins in the history of the competition, also met in the Round of 16 of the 2010–11 edition, in which Barça prevailed on away goals after two draws.

Barcelona lifted the trophy for the record-extending 26th time in their history with a 3–0 victory.{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/may/25/barcelona-athletic-copa-del-rey|title=Barcelona end Guardiola era with Copa del Rey win over Athletic Bilbao|author=Sid Lowe |newspaper=The Guardian|date=26 May 2012|access-date=13 April 2021}}{{cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/football/2012/may/25/barcelona-athletic-copa-del-rey|title=Pep Guardiola's final game: Barcelona win Copa del Rey|publisher=BBC Sport|date=26 May 2012|access-date=13 April 2021}}
