2019 ACC men's basketball tournament

The 2019 ACC men's basketball tournament was the 66th annual postseason men's basketball tournament for the Atlantic Coast Conference, held March 12–16, 2019, at the Spectrum Center in Charlotte, North Carolina.

The Virginia Cavaliers and North Carolina Tar Heels entered the tournament as the top two seeds, both with 16–2 conference, and ranked #2 and #3 in the country respectively. Both teams were defeated in the semifinals, by the #4 Florida State Seminoles (ranked #12 nationally) and the #3 Duke Blue Devils (ranked #5 nationally). Duke defeated Florida State, 73–63, in the championship game, claiming their 21st ACC Tournament title and 15th during head coach Mike Krzyzewski's tenure. Duke's Zion Williamson was named the tournament's MVP.

Seeds
All 15 ACC teams participated in the tournament, seeded by their record within the conference, with a tiebreaker system to seed teams with identical conference records. The top 4 seeds (Virginia, North Carolina, Duke, and Florida State) received a double bye. Virginia Tech, Syracuse, NC State, Louisville, and Clemson receive single byes. Boston College, Miami, Georgia Tech, Wake Forest, Pittsburgh, and Notre Dame played in the first round.

Schedule
Games were shown on over-the-air television in local media markets by the syndicated ACC Network. Games also aired nationally on various ESPN cable networks with separate telecasts and commentators. The tournament marked the formal end of Raycom Sports' long-term association with the conference; its event rights will now be held by ESPN as part of its new cable channel ACC Network.
