The 2010 Kerry Senior Hurling Championship was the 109th staging of the Kerry Senior Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Kerry County Board in 1889. The draw for the opening round fixtures was made on 10 July 2010. The championship ran from 23 July to 10 October 2010.

Kilmoyley entered the championship as the defending champions, however, they were beaten by Lixnaw in the semi-finals.[1][2][3]

The final was played on 10 October 2010 at Austin Stack Park in Tralee, between Ballyduff and Lixnaw, in what was their fifth meeting in the final overall and a first final meeting in 16 years. Ballyduff won the match by 2–18 to 2–09 to claim a record-equalling 22nd championship title overall and a first title in four years.[4][5]
