The 2016 Wexford Senior Football Championship is the 118th edition of the Wexford GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for senior graded teams in County Wexford, Ireland. The tournament consists of 12 teams, with the winner going on to represent Wexford in the Leinster Senior Club Football Championship. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.

St James' Ramsgrange were the defending champions after they defeated St. Martin's in the previous years final, however they relinquished their title to the same outfit at the Quarter-Final stage.

This was Glynn–Barntown's return to the senior grade after claiming the 2015 Wexford Intermediate Football Championship title.

Adamstown St Abban's were relegated back to the I.F.C. for 2017 after 20 years as a senior club with two S.F.C. final appearances in this period.

On 9 October 2016 Gusserane O'Rahillys claimed their 6th S.F.C. title when they defeated Glynn–Barntown on a scoreline of 0-11 to 0-10 at Wexford Park. This ended a 41-year wait for the club for S.F.C. honours.
