The 2023 Men's Oceania Cup was the twelfth edition of the Men's Oceania Cup after the cancellation of the 2022 edition due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the biennial international men's field hockey championship of Oceania organised by the Oceania Hockey Federation. It was held from 10 to 13 August 2023.[1][2]

Australia were the defending champions, having won all previous editions.[3] The event consisted of a three match series between defending champions Australia and series hosts, New Zealand. Australia, as the winner, qualified for the 2024 Summer Olympics.[4][5]
