List of number-one singles in Rhodesia

Rhodesia was an unrecognised state in southern Africa from 1965 to 1979, equivalent in territory to modern Zimbabwe. This article lists number-one singles on Rhodesia's music chart, the Lyons Maid Hits of the Week, broadcast by Radio 1. Its rankings were based on weekly sales. In the late 1960s and early 1970s the chart included both singles and LPs, but later only singles were included.

1965
Rhodesia declared independence on 11 November 1965. Previously, it was the British colony of Southern Rhodesia.

1979
Rhodesia was succeeded by Zimbabwe Rhodesia on 1 June 1979, which existed until 12 December 1979, when it reverted to temporary British colonial rule as Southern Rhodesia. The modern Republic of Zimbabwe gained independence on 18 April 1980.
