The 2004 Crown Prince Cup was the 29th season of the Saudi premier knockout tournament since its establishment in 1957. It started on 26 February 2004 and concluded with the final on 26 March 2004.

Al-Hilal were the defending champions, but were eliminated in the semi-finals by Al-Ahli.[1]

Al-Ittihad won their 7th title following a 1–0 win over derby rivals Al-Ahli in the final.[2]

The winners of the competition would have earned a place in the group stage of the 2005 AFC Champions League. However, since Al-Ittihad went on to win the 2004 AFC Champions League, they qualified for the 2005 AFC Champions League as the titleholders. Since Al-Ittihad also finished runners-up in the league, Al-Ahli, the cup runners-up, took this Champions League spot.
