The 1919 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship final was the 32nd All-Ireland Final and the deciding match of the 1919 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, an inter-county Gaelic football tournament for the top teams in Ireland.
Wexford were the reigning champions, having completed a first senior four-in-a-row in 1918. However, Wexford did not qualify for the 1919 final as they were knocked out in the semi-final of that year's Leinster Senior Football Championship.{{cite news|first=Seán|last=Moran|url=https://www.irishtimes.com/sport/gaelic-games/gaelic-football/se%C3%A1n-moran-will-time-be-on-dublin-s-side-once-more-1.4014138|title=Will time be on Dublin's side once more?|work=The Irish Times|date=11 September 2019|access-date=11 September 2019}}
