The 2024 Fermanagh Senior Football Championship was the 118th edition of Fermanagh GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior clubs in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The championship consisted of eight teams, with the winner going on to represent Fermanagh in the Ulster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship began on 30 August 2024.[5]
Derrygonnelly Harps were the defending champions,[6] but lost in the semi-final to Erne Gaels Belleek.[7]
Erne Gaels were set to face Enniskillen Gaels in the final on 20 October, but the match was postponed due to a storm.[8] The rescheduled match took place a week later, and finished in a draw.[9] The replay took place on 2 November, with Erne Gaels finally winning by four points. This was the club's third title in total and their first in 43 years.[10]
