Solomon Islands competed at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. Originally scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020, the Games were postponed to 23 July to 8 August 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The country's participation in Tokyo marked its tenth appearance at the Summer Olympics since its debut in 1984.

The Solomon Islands delegation consisted of three athletes: long-distance runner Sharon Firisua, swimmer Edgar Iro, and weightlifter Mary Kini Lifu. Firisua and Iro qualified through universality slots given by World Athletics and FINA respectively, while Lifu qualified by being the highest ranked Oceanian athlete in her category per the rankings given by the International Weightlifting Federation. Firisua and Iro were the flagbearers for the opening ceremony, while Lifu solely held the flag at the closing ceremony. None of the three athletes received a medal, and as of these Games, Solomon Islands had yet to earn an Olympic medal. Although not earning a medal, Solomon Islands stated that they considered their participation at these Games served as a learning ground for their hosting of the 2023 Pacific Games.
