The 2025 Atlantic Coast Conference baseball tournament was held May 20–25, 2025, at the Durham Bulls Athletic Park in Durham, North Carolina. The annual tournament determined the official conference champion of the Division I Atlantic Coast Conference for college baseball.
The tournament has been held every year but two since 1973, with Clemson winning eleven championships prior this, the most all-time. Georgia Tech has won nine championships, and Florida State has won eight titles since its entry to the league in 1992, matching defending champion North Carolina's total. Recent entrants Virginia Tech, Boston College, Pittsburgh, Notre Dame and Louisville have never won the event.
Due to the league's expansion, the format changed from the twelve-team round-robin tournament, to a sixteen-team single elimination bracket. The round-robin tournament had been used since 2007. It was also the first year of a single elimination format.
The Duke Blue Devils were the defending champions. Duke was unable to defend its crown as the seventh seed in the tournament, falling to second seed Florida State in the Quarterfinals. Third-seed North Carolina and fifth-seed Clemson would face-off in the Final, with North Carolina winning 14–4. The title was the ninth overall for North Carolina's baseball program and second for head coach Scott Forbes. It was North Carolina's third title in six years. As tournament champions, North Carolina earned the ACC's automatic bid to the 2025 NCAA Division I baseball tournament.
Seeding All of the sixteen teams that participated in the 2025 season qualified for the tournament. Seeds one through four were awarded a bye into the Quarterfinals, while seeds five through eight received a bye into the Second Round. A tiebreaker was required to determine the thirteenth and fourteenth seeds as Stanford and finished tied with 11–19 regular season records. The two teams met on May 2-4, and Stanford won the series 2–1, and therefore was the thirteenth seed.
