The 1958 Hogan Cup was the fifth staging of the Hogan Cup since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1946.[1] The competition ran from 31 March to 27 April 1958.

St Nathy's College were the defending champions, however, they were beaten in the Connacht Championship.[2][3]

The final was played on 27 April 1958 at Croke Park in Dublin, between St Jarlath's College and Franciscan College, in what was their first ever meeting in the final. St Jarlath's College won the match by 1–07 to 2–03 to claim their second Hogan Cup title overall and a first title in 11 years.[4]
