The 2008 Copa Venezuela was the edition of the annual Venezuelan football knockout tournament organized by the Venezuelan Football Federation (Federación Venezolana de Fútbol, FVF) for the 2008 calendar year. As with other editions, the competition featured clubs from the Primera División (first tier) and the Segunda División (second tier) of Venezuelan football, competing in a series of two‑legged ties culminating in a final.
The tournament traditionally served as a qualification pathway for the following season’s Copa Sudamericana, granting the champion a berth in the continental competition. The format for the 2008 edition followed the standard structure employed in recent years: an initial round involving lower‑division clubs, later joined by top‑division teams, with each round consisting of home and away matches and progression determined by aggregate score.
Specific details regarding the dates of the matches, the clubs that reached the semifinals and final, and the ultimate winner of the 2008 competition are not documented in the readily available encyclopedic sources consulted. Consequently, precise match results, scoring statistics, and individual award recipients for this edition remain unspecified.
