The 1971 All-Ireland Intermediate Hurling Championship was the 11th staging of the All-Ireland Intermediate Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1961. The championship ran from 28 March to 19 September 1971.
Antrim were the defending champions, however, they availed of their right to promotion to the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship and did not field a team.[1][2]
The All-Ireland final was played at Nowlan Park in Kilkenny on 19 September 1971 between Tipperary and Wicklow, in what was their first ever championship meeting. Tipperary won the match by 3-16 to 3-13 to claim their third All-Ireland title overall and a first title in five years.[3][4]
