The 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup was the 15th edition of the CONCACAF Gold Cup, the biennial international men's soccer championship of the North, Central American, and Caribbean region organized by CONCACAF. The tournament was primarily hosted in the United States, with Costa Rica and Jamaica hosting double-headers in the first round of matches in groups B and C, respectively.

The United States were the defending champions, having won the 2017 tournament. With the abolition of the FIFA Confederations Cup, the CONCACAF Cup was annulled and the Gold Cup did not qualify the winner to a major tournament for the first time since 2009.

In February 2018, CONCACAF announced that the tournament would expand to 16 teams from 12.{{cite web |title=Gold Cup to be expanded from 2019 |url=http://soccer.nbcsports.com/2018/02/26/gold-cup-to-be-expanded-from-2019/ |website=NBC Sports |access-date=February 26, 2018 |date=February 26, 2018}}{{cite press release |url=https://www.goldcup.org/en/article/concacaf-announces-gold-cup-expansion-to-16-teams-opening-access-for-more-nations-to-participate-and-host |title=CONCACAF Announces Gold Cup Expansion to 16 Teams, Opening Access for More Nations to Participate and Host |publisher=CONCACAF |date=February 26, 2018 |access-date=April 29, 2018 |archive-date=June 26, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190626181215/https://www.goldcup.org/en/article/concacaf-announces-gold-cup-expansion-to-16-teams-opening-access-for-more-nations-to-participate-and-host |url-status=dead }}

Mexico won their record-extending eighth Gold Cup title (their eleventh CONCACAF championship overall) with their 1–0 victory over the United States in the final, at Soldier Field in Chicago.{{cite web|url=https://www.goldcup.org/en/article/dos-santos-strike-powers-mexico-past-u-s-in-final|title=Dos Santos strike powers Mexico past U.S. in Final|publisher=CONCACAF Gold Cup|date=July 8, 2019|access-date=October 18, 2019|archive-date=January 25, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210125005956/https://www.goldcup.org/en/article/dos-santos-strike-powers-mexico-past-u-s-in-final|url-status=dead}}

In May 2018, CONCACAF confirmed that matches would be held in Central America and the Caribbean in addition to the United States.{{cite press release |url=https://www.goldcup.org/en/article/concacaf-selects-record-15-stadiums-in-13-u-s-metropolitan-areas-as-host-venues-and-markets-for-expanded-2019-concacaf-gold-cup |title=Concacaf Selects Record 15 Stadiums in 13 U.S. Metropolitan Areas as Host Venues and Markets for Expanded 2019 Concacaf Gold Cup |website=goldcup.org |publisher=CONCACAF |access-date=May 18, 2018 |archive-date=March 27, 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190327090152/https://www.goldcup.org/en/article/concacaf-selects-record-15-stadiums-in-13-u-s-metropolitan-areas-as-host-venues-and-markets-for-expanded-2019-concacaf-gold-cup |url-status=dead }} This was the first time that the Gold Cup was held in the Caribbean, with all previous matches having taken place in the United States, Mexico, or Canada.
