The Dublin-Galway rivalry is a Gaelic football rivalry between Irish inter-county teams Dublin and Galway, who first played each other in 1902. Dublin's home ground is Parnell Park and Galway's home ground is Pearse Stadium, however, all of their championship meetings have been held at neutral venues, usually Croke Park.

While Galway have the second highest number of Connacht titles and Dublin are the standard bearers in Leinster, they have also enjoyed success in the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship, having won 34 championship titles between them to date.
