Format
For this edition, the Copa Chile kept the format implemented in 2023, with a preliminary stage involving amateur clubs affiliated to ANFA, a regional stage where teams from Primera División, Primera B, and Segunda División Profesional entered the competition comprised by four geographical zones of 16 teams, and a national stage involving the four regional stage winners. In each regional zone, four rounds are played: round of 16, quarter-finals, semi-finals, and the finals; the round of 16 matches were played as single-legged ties, whilst the other rounds were played in a double-legged fashion. In the national stage, the regional winners played two semi-finals with their winners playing the single-match final to decide the champion.In addition to that, the 2024 Copa Chile introduced an opening match, which involved a team representing the Juan Fernández Islands and Primera B side Santiago Wanderers, played in San Juan Bautista, Juan Fernández.
Prizes
The champions of this edition will be entitled to play the 2025 Supercopa de Chile against the 2024 Campeonato Nacional champions and would also earn the right to compete in the 2025 Copa Libertadores, taking the Chile 4 berth which enables them to enter the second stage of that competition. However, since Universidad de Chile had already qualified for the Copa Libertadores through league performance, the berth was awarded to the other finalist side, Ñublense, regardless of the outcome of the final.Schedule
