The 2019 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship was the 132nd staging of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county hurling tournament, since its establishment in 1887. The draw for the 2019 fixtures took place on 11 October 2018. The championship began on 11 May 2019 and concluded on 18 August 2019.

Limerick were the defending champions.[1]

Carlow returned to the Leinster Championship for the first time since 2016, replacing Offaly who were relegated in 2018.[2][3] Carlow lost all their four games in 2019 and were automatically relegated to the 2020 Joe McDonagh Cup.

Tipperary were the winners, defeating Kilkenny in the final.[4][5]

Competition format[]

The current All-Ireland hurling championship format featuring five-team groups in both Leinster and Munster and the two Joe McDonagh Cup finalists was introduced in 2018 for an initial three-year period.

All-Ireland championship

In the Leinster and Munster provincial championships, five teams compete in single round-robin matches, home or away. The top two teams in each provincial group contest the provincial final, with the provincial winners advancing to the two All-Ireland semi-finals and the losing provincial finalists advancing to the two quarter-finals.

The third-placed teams in Leinster and Munster compete in All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals against the two Joe McDonagh Cup finalists with the Joe McDonagh Cup teams having home advantage.

Promotion and relegation in Leinster or Munster championships

If a non-Munster team wins the Joe McDonagh Cup, the bottom team in the Leinster championship is relegated to next year's Joe McDonagh Cup and is replaced in next year's Leinster championship by the Joe McDonagh Cup winners. This arrangement allows teams from Connacht and Ulster to gain promotion to the tier 1 championship.

If a Munster team wins the Joe McDonagh Cup, they playoff against the team that finished bottom in the Munster championship for the right to play in next year's Munster championship, thereby ensuring that only Munster teams compete in the Munster hurling championship.

Teams[]

A total of twelve teams compete in the championship – five in the Leinster championship, five in the Munster championship, and the two Joe McDonagh Cup finalists who enter at the preliminary quarter-final stage.

Teams and venues[]

Each team has a nominal home stadium for the round-robin series of the provincial championships.

In the knockout stage, teams from the provincial round-robin series will not have home advantage, if avoidable. The only teams to play knockout games at home are the two Joe McDonagh Cup finalists, who have home advantage in the preliminary quarter-finals. The Munster final was held at a neutral venue which was decided based on the qualifying teams, while the locations of the two quarter-finals were decided based on similar considerations. The Leinster final, and the semi-finals and final of the All-Ireland series are held in the 82,300-capacity Croke Park in Dublin, headquarters of the GAA.

Joe McDonagh Cup[]

The second ever Joe McDonagh Cup, the second tier of senior inter-county championship hurling, was contested by Antrim, Kerry, Laois, Offaly and Westmeath in 2019. Each team plays the other four teams once in a round-robin format. The top two teams compete in the Joe McDonagh Cup final and also advance to the two All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals, where they play the teams that finish third in the Leinster and Munster championships.

Promotion to the All-Ireland senior hurling championship
  • If the Joe McDonagh champions from Connacht, Leinster or Ulster they are promoted directly to the Leinster Championship for 2020.
  • If the Joe McDonagh champions are from Munster they compete in a relegation-promotion playoff against the bottom team in the Munster Championship.

All-Ireland preliminary quarter-finals[]

The third-placed teams in the Leinster and Munster championships play the two teams who competed in the Joe McDonagh Cup Final, with the two Joe McDonagh finalists having home advantage. The Joe McDonagh champions, Laois, face third-placed Leinster team, Dublin, in the first preliminary quarter final, while the runners-up, Westmeath, meet Cork, the third-placed team from Munster, in the other preliminary quarter final.

All-Ireland quarter-finals[]

The beaten Leinster and Munster finalists play the winners of the two preliminary quarter-finals. If a third-place finisher from a provincial round-robin wins their preliminary quarter-final, they will be kept apart from the team they have already met in the round-robin phase to prevent a repeat fixture. Both games are held at neutral venues.

All-Ireland semi-finals[]

The Leinster and Munster champions play the winners of the two quarter-finals. The semi-finals take place in Croke Park in the last weekend of July.
