The 2015 Oceania Sevens Championship was the eighth Oceania Sevens. It was held in Waitakere, Auckland, New Zealand on 14–15 November 2015.[1] As well as determining the regional championship, the tournament was also a qualifying event for the 2016 Olympics sevens, with the highest-placed eligible team gaining a direct berth to Rio de Janeiro.[1]

Australia won the tournament, defeating Tonga 50–0 in the final.[2] The second and third place getters Tonga and Samoa received invitations to the final qualification tournament.[3] Fiji and New Zealand did not participate in the 2015 Oceania Sevens as they had already qualified for the 2016 Olympics.
