Vanuatu at the Olympics

Vanuatu at the Olympics

Vanuatu first participated at the Olympic Games in 1988, and has sent athletes to compete in every Summer Olympic Games since then. The nation has never participated in the Winter Olympic Games.

As of 2008, no Vanuatuan athlete has ever won an Olympic medal.

The National Olympic Committee for Vanuatu was created in 1987 and recognized by the International Olympic Committee that same year.
