The 2015 Oceania Athletics Championships were held at Barlow Park in Cairns, Australia, between May 8–10, 2015. The event was held jointly with the 2015 Oceania Youth Athletics Championships and the 2015 Oceania Combined Events Championships. Moreover, there were also exhibition events for masters and athletes with a disability (parasports), as well as school events for age groups 5 to 15 years. Detailed reports on a day by day basis were given.
Initially, a total of 48 events were scheduled. However, results for women's pole vault could not be retrieved. The event was most probably cancelled resulting in a total of 47 contested events, 24 by men, 22 by women, and 1 mixed.
