The 1987–88 Harty Cup was the 68th staging of the Harty Cup since its establishment in hurling by the Munster Council of Gaelic Athletic Association in 1918.[1] The competition contested from 17 February to 17 April 1988.
St Flannan's College unsuccessfully defended its title, in a semi-final replay against Midleton CBS.[2][3][4]
Midleton CBS won the Harty Cup final, 2–07 to 2–03, on 17 April 1988 at the Mitchelstown Grounds, against Thurles CBS, in what was their second meeting in the final overall and first meeting since 1950. It was Midleton CBS' first ever Harty Cup title.[5][6]
