The 2024 Christy Ring Cup was the twentieth edition of the Christy Ring Cup since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 2005[1] and is the third-tier of Hurling for senior county teams (the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship is the first-tier trophy). It is contested by six GAA county teams ranked 18–23 in the 2024 All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship. The competition ran from 13 April to 2 June 2024.[2]
