The 1969–70 City Cup was the 65th edition of the City Cup, a cup competition in Northern Irish football. [1]

The tournament was won by Glentoran for the 13th time after they defeated Bangor 7–1 in the final at Windsor Park. [2] [3]

For the first time in its history, the City Cup was not run as a league table with all clubs playing each other once - the 12 clubs were split into two sections with the two section winners playing each other in the final. [4]
