The 2024 championship began with provincial tournaments in April and will end with the All-Ireland Final on 21 July.[1]

Limerick enter the championship as defending champions, having won the previous four championships. They are attempting to be the first team in history to win five in a row, a feat never achieved in hurling, and previously only attempted by Cork in 1945 and Kilkenny in 2010, both thwarted by Tipperary.

Scoring events

  • Widest winning margin: 32 points
  • Most goals in a match: 7
    • Offaly 3-19 - 4-25 Cork (preliminary quarter-final)
  • Most points in a match: 57
  • Most goals by one team in a match: 5

Miscellaneous

  • Limerick become the first ever county to win 6 consecutive Munster titles.
  • Clare become the third ever team to lose 3 consecutive Munster finals.
  • Kilkenny failed to win the All-Ireland for the ninth year in a row, equalling their title droughts of 1923–31 and 1948–56.
  • Cork's 3-28 to 3-26 defeat of Limerick in the Round Three Munster senior hurling championship put another dent into Limerick's Drive for Five attempt as this was the second championship defeat of the Four-in-a-row All Ireland champions. The only other team to complete a perfect 100% entry into the final was Kilkenny from 2006 to 2010 having not been defeated in any match up until the final by Tipperary.
  • By beating Limerick in the All-Ireland semi final, Cork became the first hurling team to end a five in a row attempt since Tipperary beat Kilkenny in the 2010 All-Ireland final and previously Tipperary ended Cork's attempt of winning a five in a row during the Munster championship of 1945.

Live televised games

RTÉ, the national broadcaster in Ireland, will provide the majority of the live television coverage of the hurling championship.[14]

For the second year GAAGO will also broadcast matches in Ireland with nine games to be shown exclusively on its pay streaming service.[15]
