The Galway-Kerry rivalry is a Gaelic football rivalry between Irish inter-county teams Galway and Kerry, who first played each other in 1913. It was considered to be one of the biggest rivalries in Gaelic games during the 1960s. Kerry's home ground is Fitzgerald Stadium and Galway's home ground is Pearse Stadium, however, all of their championship meetings have been held at neutral venues, usually Croke Park.
While Kerry have the highest number of Leinster titles and Galway are second only to Mayo in Connacht, they have also enjoyed All-Ireland Senior Football Championship successes, having won 46 championship titles between them to date.
