The 1893 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship was the seventh staging of the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship, the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county hurling tournament. The championship began on 5 November 1893 and ended on 21 June 1894.
The championship was won by Cork who secured the title following a 6-8 to 0-2 defeat of Kilkenny in the All-Ireland final.[1] This was their 3rd All-Ireland title.
Cork were the defending champions, thus becoming the first team to retain the title.
Five counties competed in the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship: two teams in the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship and three teams in the Munster Senior Hurling Championship.
