The 1974–75 Harty Cup was the 55th staging of the Harty Cup since its establishment in hurling by the Munster Council of the Gaelic Athletic Association in 1918.[1] The competition ran from 23 October 1974 to 16 March 1975.

St Finbarr's College unsuccessfully defended its title, in an attempt for an unrealised record-breaking fifth successive title.[2][3]

Coláiste Iognáid Rís won their first ever Harty Cup title overall in the Harty Cup final, 5–06 to 2–04, on 16 March 1975 at Semple Stadium in Thurles, against Limerick CBS, in their first meeting in the final.[4][5]
