The match was held at Croke Park, Dublin, on 9 September 1923, between Kilkenny and Tipperary. The Munster champions lost to their Leinster opponents on a score line of 4–2 to 2–6.

Miscellaneous[edit]

  • Along with the 1932 final, it is the only senior hurling final match where the teams were level longer than either team led during the game.
  • Tipperary led four separate times during the match. This was the most by a losing team up to that point and was not equalled until the 1972 final.
