TheDivision of Lyons (/laɪənz/) is anAustralian electoral division inTasmania.

Since 1984, federal electoral division boundaries in Australia have been determined at redistributions by a redistribution committee appointed by theAustralian Electoral Commission. Redistributions occur for the boundaries of divisions in a particular state, and they occur every seven years, or sooner if a state's representation entitlement changes or when divisions of a state are malapportioned.^[1]

The division was created at the Federal redistribution of 12 September 1984 as a reconfigured version of the abolishedDivision of Wilmot. The name jointly honoursJoseph Lyons,Prime Minister of Australia 1932–39, Member for Wilmot from 1929–39, and his wifeDame Enid Lyons, the first woman elected to the Australian House of Representatives (1943) and subsequently the first female member of Cabinet (1949–51). Joseph Lyons had previously represented Wilmotat the state level from 1909 to 1929.

It has been a marginal seat, changing hands between theLabor Party and theLiberal Party. It is located in central Tasmania, stretching from the eastern to northern coast and includes such places asNew Norfolk,Deloraine andSt Marys, as well as the outer northern suburbs ofHobart.
