2020 All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship

The 2020 All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship was the 90th staging of the All-Ireland Minor Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1928. The championship was due to take place between April and August 2020, however, due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Gaelic games, new provincial draws and formats were adopted. The championship eventually began on 17 October 2020, however, it was confirmed four days later that the championship was once again being suspended. The championship ended on 10 July 2021.

Galway entered the championship as the defending champions in search of a fourth successive title.
