The 2007 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship was the 121st staging of the All-Ireland hurling championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1887. The championship began on 22 May 2007 and ended on 2 September 2007.
Kilkenny were the defending champions, and successfully retained their All-Ireland crown following a 2-19 to 1-15 defeat of Limerick. This put them on level terms with Cork on 30 titles.
