The 2016 Wicklow Senior Football Championship is the 116th edition of the Wicklow GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded teams in County Wicklow, Ireland. The tournament consists of 16 teams (14 clubs and 2 divisional sides), with the winner going on to represent Wicklow in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship consists of a back door system.

Rathnew were the defending champions after they defeated St. Patrick's in the previous years final.

Tinahely, who lost last years relegation final, were given a reprieve and allow to keep their senior status when Rathnew 'B's won the I.F.C. in 2015. A reserve side can't compete in the S.F.C. so no team was promoted of relegated at the end of the 2015 season.

On 9 October 2016 Baltinglass claimed their 22nd S.F.C. and their first in 9 years when they defeated St. Patrick's 1-14 to 1-9 in Aughrim Park.

Divisional Sides:

  • North District: – I.F.C. clubs An Tóchar & J.F.C. clubs Enniskerry, Fergal Óg, Kilcoole, Kilmacanogue and Newcastle.
  • St. Boden's: – J.F.C. clubs Kilbride, Lacken and Valleymount.
