The 1997 Munster Senior Hurling Championship final (sponsored by Guinness) was a hurling match played on Sunday 6 July 1997 at Páirc Uí Chaoimh, Cork. It was contested by Clare and Tipperary. Clare, captained by Anthony Daly and managed by Ger Loughnane, claimed the title, beating Tipperary on a scoreline of 1-18 to 0-18.
