Lismore GAA is a Gaelic Athletic Association club based in Lismore, County Waterford, Ireland. The club enters teams in both GAA codes each year, which includes two adult hurling teams and one adult Gaelic football team in the Waterford County Championships.

The club has won the County Senior Hurling Championship 3 times, 1925, 1991 and 1993. Since their last win, Lismore have contested numerous finals and semi finals but have failed at the final hurdle.

2016 saw Lismore have one of their most successful seasons in recent years. Following the disappointment of relegation from the senior ranks the previous year, they won the Western Intermediate hurling final beating Modeligo 2-15 to 1-11. Dunhill were accounted for in the county final 5-19 to 1-7, with both Shanahan brothers Maurice and Dan rattling the net. Then the trip to play Cork champions Bandon saw the Lismore boys come out on top 2-20 to 1-12. Next up were Tipp side Newport and a tight game was won 1-15 to 1-12. A fine year was rounded off by being crowned Munster champions with victory over Kilmoyley 2-14 to 0-13.
