The 2023 All-Ireland Under-20 Hurling Championship final was a hurling match that was played on 4 June 2023 to determine the winners of the 2023 All-Ireland Under-20 Hurling Championship, the 60th season of the All-Ireland Under-20 Hurling Championship, a tournament organised by the Gaelic Athletic Association for the champion teams of Leinster and Munster.[2] The final was contested by Cork of Munster and Offaly of Leinster.[3]
Not only was the All-Ireland final between Cork and Offaly the first ever All-Ireland final meeting between the two teams, but it was also their first ever championship meeting. Strong favourites Cork were hoping to claim a first title since 2021, while Offaly were hoping to claim their first ever title, the bulk of this team having played in the 2022 minor final loss to Tipperary.
