The 2013 Ulster Senior Hurling Championship was the 68th installment of the annual Ulster Senior Hurling Championship held under the auspices of the Ulster GAA. Antrim were the defending champions, and secured their twelfth consecutive title in a much delayed final played against Down on 2 February 2014.
The delays, which arose from a fixture clash caused by a semi-final draw between Down and Derry, and exacerbated by a ban on inter-county training in the winter of 2013, was heavily criticised for undermining the competition. The winners, Antrim, in fact never played a single match of the 2013 Championship in 2013, having progressed automatically to the final.
Entered championship
Withdrew from championship
As the Ulster championship is of a lower standard than its Leinster and Munster counterparts, there was no entry from the Ulster Championship to the All-Ireland Championship proper. Antrim will instead enter that competition through the preliminary round of the Leinster Senior Hurling Championship.
The other Ulster teams are not eligible, and took part in the Christy Ring Cup, the second tier All-Ireland hurling championship, Down winning the competition.
Four counties will compete in the Ulster Senior Hurling Championship:
