Шаблон:EngvarB Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Lionstour Шаблон:Infobox Tour Rugby
In 1983 the British and Irish Lions toured New Zealand for the first time since 1977. The Lions went down to a 4–0 whitewash for only the second time in history – the previous was also inflicted by the All Blacks on the 1966 Lions. Overall the Lions played eighteen matches, winning twelve and losing six. In addition to their four test defeats they also lost to the Auckland and Canterbury provincial unions.
The tour was captained by Ciaran Fitzgerald, coached by Jim Telfer and managed by Willie John McBride. The tour lasted 18 matches and almost 3 months, between May and July 1983.

In addition to the players originally selected, six players subsequently joined as replacements or cover for injured players;
- Nigel Melville, who had not yet been capped by England, replaced Terry Holmes who was injured in the first test.
- Melville was injured himself in his second match and was replaced by Steve Smith.
- Eddie Butler replaced Jeff Squire.
- Nick Jeavons replaced John O'Driscoll although O'Driscoll did resume playing on the tour.
