The Laois Intermediate Hurling Championship (abbreviated to the Laois IHC) is an annual hurling competition organised by the Laois County Board of the Gaelic Athletic Association for the third tier hurling teams in the county of Laois in Ireland.

In its current format, the Laois Intermediate Championship begins with a group stage in mid-summer. The eight participating teams are divided into two groups of four and play each other in a round-robin system. The three top-ranking teams in each group proceed to the knockout phase that culminates with the final match at O'Moore Park.

The title has been won by 35 different clubs, 26 of which have won the title more than once.[1] Clonaslee is the most successful team in the tournament's history, having won it eight times. Mountmellick are the title holders after defeating Abbeyleix by 4-17 to 1-16 in the 2024 final.[2]
