The 1996 All-Ireland Under-21 Hurling Championship was the 33rd staging of the All-Ireland Under-21 Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1964.
Tipperary were the defending champions, however, they were beaten by Cork in the Munster semi-final.
On 10 September 1995, Galway won the championship following a 1-14 to 0-7 defeat of Wexford in the All-Ireland final. This was their 7th All-Ireland title in the under-21 grade and their first in three championship seasons.
