The competition started in February, 1936 and concluded on June 21, 1936, with the final, held at the Mestalla stadium in Valencia. Real Madrid, known as Madrid FC under the Second Spanish Republic, won the match 2-1 for their seventh cup victory, defeating FC Barcelona in the first El Clásico final.
