Australia at the 2017 Asian Winter Games

Australia competed in the 2017 Asian Winter Games in Sapporo and Obihiro, Japan from 19 to 26 February. The event marked the debut of the country at the Asian Winter Games, however its athletes were not eligible to win any medals, as the team was classified as guest competitors.

Australia's team of 30 athletes (18 men and 12 women) competed in three sports (eight disciplines). The team consisted mostly of developmental athletes, mixed with some who were expected to qualify for the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang, South Korea.

Short track speed skater Deanna Lockett was the country's flagbearer during the parade of nations at the opening ceremony.
