The Dr McKenna Cup is an annual Gaelic football competition played between counties and universities in the province of Ulster. It is the secondary Gaelic football competition based in Ulster behind the Ulster Senior Football Championship.

Once held in high regard, in recent years the focus of the competition has changed, and some county teams have made use of it as a pre-season "warm up" competition ahead of the National League and Championship.

Since 2016 the competition has been known—for sponsorship reasons—as the Bank of Ireland McKenna Cup.

The competition was suspended for the 2025 season due to fixture congestion but will return for 2026.
