Fans of Tyrone (red-and-white) and Kerry (green-and-gold) flying assorted flags on All-Ireland day in Croke Park

The GAA county colours of a county in Ireland are the colours of the kit worn by that county's representative team in the Gaelic Athletic Association's inter-county competitions, the most important of which are the All-Ireland Senior Football Championship and the All-Ireland Senior Hurling Championship. Flags and banners of these colours are waved by supporters at these matches; in the build-up to a major match, flags and bunting are flown or hung from buildings, telegraph poles, and other fixtures across the county, especially in those regions where GAA support is strong. :For more details of Tyrone football see Tyrone Senior Club Football Championship or Tyrone Senior Club Hurling Championship. ...

Dublin with navy shorts and Antrim in the traditional white shorts

Where a county's jersey is multi-coloured, these are the county colours. Where the jersey is a single colour, the colour of the shorts is also included.

While each county council has a coat of arms, there are no official county flags. Flags with the GAA county colours serve as ersatz county flags. However, there are no standardised formats for these, except Kildare whose flag, like their kit, is all-white. Typically, flags are formed as vertical bicolours or tricolours. The choice of which colour is nearest the hoist varies within a county. Moreover, horizontal stripes are used by some individuals. (This is common in County Offaly, where vertical county colours might be mistaken for the flag of Ireland; however other Offaly fans deliberately exploit this double significance.)

Flags with checkerboard, repeating stripes, and other patterns are also found. In recent years, flags have been commercially produced which feature the county's GAA logo on the flag. These logos are sometimes based on the official county coat-of-arms, but some have been replaced with unrelated designs. Fans may also wave other flags of the appropriate colours. For example, among the red-and-white flags used by individual Cork GAA supporters have been the flag of Canada and the ensign of the Imperial Japanese Navy.
