The 2020 CONCACAF Super Cup was the 13th edition of the CONCACAF Super Cup, an annual football match organised by CONCACAF and contested by the reigning champions of the two main North American club competitions, the CONCACAF Champions League and the CONCACAF SuperLiga. The match featured Los Angeles FC who won the 2019–20 CONCACAF Champions League and Pérez Zeledón, who won the 2019–20 CONCACAF SuperLiga.

The match was scheduled to be played at Estadio Caliente in Tijuana, Mexico, on 15 August 2020. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and travel restrictions, the match was rescheduled to 21 September 2020 and moved to Inter Miami CF Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States. Capacity was restricted to 25% capacity. Due to the pandemic, Estadio Caliente was given rights to host the 2024 CONCACAF Super Cup in August 2024.

This is the second Super Cup not to feature a team from Mexico.

Estadio Caliente was originally announced as the final venue on 29 June 2019, following the decision of the CONCACAF Executive Committee meeting in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago. On 15 July 2020, the venue was switched to Inter Miami CF Stadium due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
