The 1975 Meath Intermediate Football Championship is the 49th edition of the Meath GAA's premier club Gaelic football tournament for intermediate graded teams in County Meath, Ireland. The tournament consists of 18 teams. The championship starts with a group stage and then progresses to a knock out stage.

Navan O'Mahonys 'B's' and St. Colmcille's were promoted after claiming the 1974 Meath Junior Football Championship title and runners-up spot respectively.

In early 1975, Gibbstown joined forces with last year's I.F.C. champions to form the Wolfe Tones and were hence promoted from the I.F.C. Martry also amalgamated with S.F.C. finalists from 1974 Bohermeen, and were also promoted.

On 5 October 1975, Moylagh claimed their 1st Intermediate championship title when they defeated Dunshaughlin 2-5 to 0-9 in the final in Pairc Tailteann, and thus entered the top flight of Meath club football for the first time.

Ballinabrackey were relegated to the 1976 J.F.C. after just 3 years in the middle grade as well as St. Brigid's Ballinacree.
