Nordic Australians are Australian citizens whose origins are found in any of the Nordic countries, or people from any of these countries who live in Australia. Danish immigrants made up the largest group by far.

In the Australian censuses, citizens of Nordic background are named as Scandinavian Australians; although Finland is significantly different culturally from Scandinavian countries and as such is not usually included among them, it is still counted as one for the sake of statistics.[citation needed]
