The 2025–26 All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship was the 55th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county club Gaelic football tournament. The competition ran from 1 November 2025 to 18 January 2026.
The defending champions were Cuala; however, they were knocked out of the Dublin SFC at the Semi-Final stage.[1]
The final was played on 18 January 2026 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Dingle and St Brigid's, in what was their first ever championship meeting. Dingle won the match after extra time, by 0–23 to 1–19, to claim a first title.[2]
Format
Each Irish county plays a county championship, with one club from each county progressing to the All-Ireland Senior Club Football Championship. In this, each province plays their own championship (all being straight knockout) with the four provincial champions qualifying for the All-Ireland semi-finals.
The Kilkenny champion do not compete in Leinster, instead playing in the 2025–26 All-Ireland Intermediate Club Football Championship, while the London champion compete in the Connacht Club SFC.
