The 2016 Dublin Senior Football Championship was the 130th edition of Dublin GAA's premier gaelic football tournament for senior clubs in County Dublin, Ireland. 32 teams participate, with the winner representing Dublin in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship.
Ballyboden St. Enda's were the defending Dublin (and All-Ireland champions) having defeated St. Vincent's in the 2015 Dublin championship final. They gave up their titles in the last sixteen stage when losing to Kilmacud Crokes.
On 5 November 2016, St. Vincent's claimed their 28th Dublin S.F.C. title and 4th in 5 years when defeating Castleknock (who reached their first final after only two years in the senior grade and only their 18th year in existence after being established in 1998) in Parnell Park in the final by 0-15 to 0-10.
O'Tooles were relegated to the Intermediate Football Championship for 2017 after they failed to fulfill their Round 1 Senior 'B' Replay with Naomh Mearnóg this year. They will be replaced by Paul Flynn's Fingallians who claimed this year's I.F.C. title.
