Weightlifting at the 2018 Commonwealth Games was held in the Gold Coast from April 5 to 9. The Weightlifting competition was held at the Carrara Sports and Leisure Centre. A total of eight men's and eight women's events were held.

On 7 October 2016, it was announced that seven new events for women were being added to the sport program, meaning there would be an equal number of events for men and women. This marked the first time in history that a major multi-sport event would have equality in terms of events. This included the addition of an additional female event in the weightlifting competitions.[1][2]
