The 2017 Ulster Senior Hurling Championship is the sixty-ninth edition of the Ulster Senior Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Ulster Council in 1901 is the highest-tier of Hurling for senior county teams in Ulster. It is contested by four Ulster GAA county teams ranked 1–4 from the 2016 Ulster Senior Hurling Championship. The championship was moved to April, instead of the usual June/July dates, in order to accommodate the various tiers of the 2017 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship.[1][2]

Antrim won a sixteenth consecutive title.[3]
