Weightlifting at the 2011 Arafura Games took place at the Darwin Entertainment Centre between 10 and 13 May 2011.[1]

Together with that year's Oceania Championships (which also include the South Pacific Championships), they were held concurrently as a single event designated the 2011 Arafura Games & Oceania Championships.[2][3] Athletes from certain countries were able to contest multiple championships simultaneously (including age-group variants).

There were also two openweight para powerlifting events (one per gender) for disabled athletes.
