The 2022 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship was the 135th staging of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county hurling tournament, since its establishment in 1887. The provincial fixtures were released on 27 November 2021.[1] The championship began on 16 April 2022 and ended on 17 July 2022.[2]

Limerick entered the championship as defending champions having won the previous two championships.[3]

Westmeath, having won the 2021 Joe McDonagh Cup, returned to the Leinster Championship for the first time since the 2017 competition.[4]

The All-Ireland final was played on 17 July 2022 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Limerick and Kilkenny. Defending champions Limerick won the game by 1–31 to 2–26 to claim their fourth title in five years and their first ever three-in-a-row.[5][6]

Limerick captain Declan Hannon became the first captain to lift the Liam MacCarthy Cup four times.[7]
