Badminton events at the 2023 African Games occurred between 7 and 10 March at the Borteyman Sports Complex in Accra, Ghana. The badminton program in 2023 included men's and women's singles competitions; men's, women's and mixed doubles competitions alongside a mixed team event throughout the six days of competition.[1] The tournament served as a qualifier for the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France.

Due to undisclosed reasons, the mixed team event which was supposed to be held from 4 to 7 March was cancelled. Therefore, only the individual events were held.[2][3] The President of Ghana Badminton Federation Yeboah Evans [4] played a key role in saving the continental games and exhibited an international event management in the Olympic qualifying event.
