Archery competitions at the 2019 Pan American Games in Lima, Peru are scheduled to be held between August 6th and 11th, 2019 at the Archery field in the Villa María del Triunfo cluster.[1]

In 2017, Panam Sports added compound events (individual and mixed team), marking the first time ever the discipline has been held at the Pan American Games.[2] Also in 2017, the International Olympic Committee approved the addition of a mixed team event in the recurve discipline, which meant it was subsequently added to these games' event program.[3][4] This means a total of eight events will be held: three each for men and women, along with two mixed events.

The highest ranked athlete in each individual recurve event (that has not yet qualified) will earn a quota spot for their country at the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo, Japan along with the top mixed recurve team.[5]
