The 2022 Fermanagh Senior Football Championship was the 116th edition of the Fermanagh GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior clubs in County Fermanagh, Northern Ireland. The championship consists of eight teams and had a new group stage format. The championship began on 9 September 2022.[5]

Derrygonnelly Harps were the defending champions,[6] but were beaten by Enniskillen Gaels at the semi-final stage.[7]

The final was due to be played on 23 October, but was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.[8] The final was played seven days later, and Enniskillen Gaels defeated Erne Gaels Belleek to win their first title since 2006.[9][10]
