The 1936 All-Ireland Junior Hurling Championship was the 19th staging of the All-Ireland Junior Championship since its establishment by the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1912.

Limerick entered the championship as the defending champions, however, they were beaten in the Munster Championship.[1][2]

The All-Ireland final was played on 13 September 1936 at Croke Park in Dublin, between Westmeath and Waterford, in what was their first ever meeting in a final. Westmeath won the match by 2-05 to 3-01 to claim their first ever championship title.[3][4]
