Athletics at the VI All-Africa Games
Dates	13–23 September 1995
Host city	Harare, Zimbabwe
	← 1991 Cairo 1999 Johannesburg → ; 1995 All-Africa Games

The sixth All-Africa Games were held in September 1995 in Harare, Zimbabwe. As the track is at an altitude of 1473 metres all performances are considered to be set at altitude, this is believed to assist events up to 400 metres and in the long jump and triple jump. However, for events beyond 800 metres the thinner air is believed to have a detrimental effect on performances.
