The 2019 ACF Nationals was held at Penn on April 14 and 15. It was the last ACF Nationals held before the COVID-19 pandemic.

The question set was head-edited by Auroni Gupta and edited by Jordan Brownstein, Matt Bollinger, JinAh Kim, Alex Damisch, Ike Jose, Andrew Hart, Andrew Wang, Athena Kern, Aaron Rosenberg, and Jason Cheng.

Columbia defeated Chicago A in a one-game final, which featured Kevin Koai (who briefly unretired after being inactive since 2013) beating his former teammate John Lawrence to a controversial hard music tossup on William Grant Still's Afro-American Symphony by buzzing in several seconds after the end of the question, despite them being two of the all-time best music players.[1][2] Berkeley A defeated Michigan State to take the undergraduate title. Jakob Myers led the tournament in scoring.
