The 2025 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship (SFC) was the 139th edition of the Gaelic Athletic Association's premier inter-county Gaelic football tournament. Thirty-one of the thirty-two Irish counties took part. Kilkenny did not compete, but took part in the All-Ireland Junior Championship, while London and New York completed the lineup by entering the Connacht SFC.

Armagh the defending champion, would have been assured of a place in the All-Ireland round robin phase by a top 7 finish in the 2025 National Football League; in the event, Armagh qualified as an Ulster SFC finalist. [1] Down, as winner of the 2024 Tailteann Cup, moved up to the All-Ireland championship round robin, regardless of provincial championship or National Football League position. [2]

The final was played on 27 July 2025 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Ulster champions Donegal and Munster champions Kerry. Kerry won a 39th title, with a 1–26 to 0–19 win against Donegal in that game. [3]

The new scoring system in Gaelic football -- when the ball is kicked over the crossbar from outside the 20 m (22 yd) line and outside a 40 m (44 yd) arc, 2 points are scored. Scoring in Gaelic football - H shaped posts and new 2-pointer zone.png

The draws for the competition took place on 12 October 2024.

Format

Provincial Championships

Connacht, Leinster, Munster and Ulster each organised a provincial championship. All provincial matches were knock-out.

Group stage format

Sixteen teams progressed to the All-Ireland Championship round-robin:

The other 17 county teams competed in the 2025 Tailteann Cup. New York, by failing to reach the final of the Connacht SFC, joined the Tailteann Cup in the preliminary quarter-final stage, the remaining teams in the round-robin group stages.

In the All-Ireland Championship round-robin, 16 teams were drawn into four groups of four teams. Each team played the other in its group once, earning 2 points for a win and 1 for a draw. Each team played one home, one away, and one neutral fixture.

The top three in each group advanced to the knockout stages, first-place teams to the All-Ireland quarter-finals, and second and third-placed teams to the preliminary quarter-finals. [4]

Teams

Thirty-three counties competed in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship: seven teams in the Connacht Senior Football Championship, eleven teams in the Leinster Senior Football Championship, six teams in the Munster Senior Football Championship and nine teams in the Ulster Senior Football Championship.
