This is a list of candidates for the 1920 New South Wales state election. The election was held on 20 March 1920. The election was the first of three conducted under the system of proportional representation; as a result, it is not possible to estimate the notional pre-election numbers.
Sitting members are shown in bold text. Successful parties are highlighted in the relevant colour. Successful candidates are indicated by an asterisk (*).
