The 2024 Walsh Cup is an early-season inter-county hurling competition based in the Irish province of Leinster and taking play in January 2024.^[1]

Nine county teams compete — seven from Leinster (Carlow, Dublin, Kilkenny, Laois, Offaly, Westmeath, Wexford); Galway from Connacht; and Antrim from Ulster. Four other teams from Leinster and Ulster will play in the second-ranked 2024 Kehoe Cup.^[2]

Competition format

The teams are drawn into three groups of three teams. Each team plays the other teams in their group once. Two points are awarded for a win and one for a draw.

Two group winners play each other in a semi-final, and the winners of that game play the other group winners in the final.^[3]

Fixtures

Group games take place 4–21 January 2024.
