Mullinavat were the defending champions for the second year running after defeating Muckalee in the previous year's final.[1]

This was Tullogher-Rosbercon's return to the senior grade after claiming the 2018 Kilkenny I.F.C. title.[citation needed]

On 11 August 2019, Mullinavat claimed their 4th Kilkenny S.F.C. crown when defeating Railyard by 1-13 to 0-10 after a replay in the final at Nolan Park.[2][3]

James Stephens were relegated to the 2020 I.F.C. after conceding a walkover to Glenmore in the Relegation Final. This ended their 12 year consecutive streak in the senior ranks since their promotion in 2007.[citation needed]

This tournament was sponsored by JJ Kavanagh and Sons.
