Weightlifting at the 1994 Commonwealth Games was the 12th appearance of Weightlifting at the Commonwealth Games. The events were held in Victoria, Canada, from 18 to 28 August 1994 and featured contests in ten weight classes.[1]
The weightlifting events were held at the Royal Theatre.[2] The format retained the three gold medals per weight category (snatch, clean and jerk and overall) which had been introduced in 1990. Thirty gold medals were therefore available again in just ten weight categories and resulted in the odd scenario whereby one athlete could win three gold medals in the same event.[3]
Australia topped the weightlifting medal table by virtue of winning 14 gold medals.[4]
