The 2024 Oceania Sevens Championship was the sixteenth Oceania Sevens tournament in men's rugby sevens. It will offers two teams the chance to compete on the global stage, competing for qualification to the World Rugby Sevens Challenger Series, and it was held at National Stadium in Honiara, Solomon Islands from 7 to 8 December.

Teams

Fourteen national teams were scheduled to compete at the 2024 tournament, plus an Oceania invitational team:

•  American Samoa
•  Australia
•  Cook Islands
•  Fiji
•  Japan
•  Kiribati
•  Nauru
•  New Caledonia
•  Niue
•  Samoa
•  Solomon Islands
•  Tahiti
•  Tonga
•  Tuvalu
•  Vanuatu

Format

Teams were seeded into four pools of four teams, except one group. The top two teams from each group advanced to the quarter-finals, while the remaining teams will battle it out in parallel to determine their final ranking.

The stakes are high for teams competing in this year's tournament. The two highest-ranked non-2024–25 SVNS will secure spots in the World Rugby Challenger Series. Teams already qualified for the HSBC Sevens World Series (Fiji and Australia) are not eligible for Challenger Series qualification, leaving the race wide open for other teams to rise to the occasion.
