The 2000 Bank of Ireland All-Ireland Senior Football Championship was the 114th edition of the GAA's premier Gaelic football competition. The championship began on 7 May 2000 and ended on 7 October 2000.
Meath entered the championship as the defending champions; however, they were beaten by Offaly in the Leinster quarter-final.
On 24 September 2000, the All-Ireland final between Kerry and Galway ended in a draw, 0-14 apiece. Kerry won the replay two weeks later by 0–17 to 1-10, thus claiming their 32nd All-Ireland title.[1]
This was the final year that the provincial knockout format was used, before the qualifier system was introduced in 2001.
