The 9th South Pacific Games, also known as Port Moresby 1991 (Tok Pisin: Pot Mosbi 1991) held on 7–21 September 1991 in Port Moresby and Lae, Papua New Guinea, was the ninth edition of the South Pacific Games. This was the first time that events at one games had been held in two cities. The decision to do so was to allow both locations to benefit from the construction of new facilities.[1]

Host nation Papua New Guinea topped the medal table for the first time at a South Pacific Games with a total of 100 medals won.[2]
