The 1959–60 Lancashire Cup was the forty-seventh occasion on which the competition had been held.
Warrington won the trophy by beating St. Helens by the score of 5-4.
With again no invitation to a junior club this season, the total number of teams entering the competition remained the same at 14.
This is the last time the attendance at a Lancashire Cup final would approach 40,000.
