The 2025 Vancouver FC season was the third season in the history of Vancouver FC. In addition to the Canadian Premier League (CPL), the club competed in the Canadian Championship.

Although the Eagles finished as the bottom of the CPL table, the club made an unlikely run to the Canadian Championship final, ultimately qualifying for the 2026 CONCACAF Champions Cup. Based on a comment from manager Afshin Ghotbi (who was relieved of his duties mid-season), the 2025 team became known as "the best last-place team in the history of the league."[1][2][3][4]
