The 2026 All-Ireland Junior Football Championship is the 94th staging of the All-Ireland Junior Football Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1912.
Format
Since 2022, the competition has involved Junior Gaelic football inter-county teams; Kilkenny (who do not compete in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship), New York, and the winners and runners up from the All-Britain Junior Football Championship, played between the county teams of Britain. A second American team representing all other parts of the country outside New York, known as United States GAA, has entered the competition since 2024.
