The 2026 Copa Norte finals was the final two-legged tie that decided the 2026 Copa Norte, the 7th season of the Copa Norte, Brazil's regional cup football tournament organised by the Brazilian Football Confederation. The 2026 edition marked the return of the competition, which has not been held since 2002.[1]
