The 2005 CONCACAF Champions' Cup was the 40th edition of the annual international club football competition held in the CONCACAF region (North America, Central America and the Caribbean), the CONCACAF Champions' Cup. The tournament was also a qualifying event for the 2005 FIFA Club World Championship. Qualifying began September 21, 2004 and final rounds took place in 2005.

Costa Rica's Deportivo Saprissa won the title with a 3-2 aggregate win over Mexico's UNAM Pumas in the final. Saprissa had advanced with dramatic wins, once in extra time and once on penalty kicks. Saprissa qualified for the FIFA Club World Championship 2005 in Japan, finishing third.
