The 1989 Limerick Senior Hurling Championship was the 95th staging of the Limerick Senior Hurling Championship since its establishment by the Limerick County Board in 1887. The championship ran from 8 July to 10 September 1989.

The final was played on 10 September 1989 at the Gaelic Grounds in Limerick, between Ballybrown and Doon, in what was their first ever meeting in the final.[4] Ballybrown won the match by 4–10 to 2–09 to claim their first ever championship title.[5][6]
