Ghana competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, from 27 July to 12 August 2012. This was the nation's thirteenth appearance at the Summer Olympics, having competed in all but three editions since 1952. Ghana did not attend the 1976 Olympics because of the African boycott and did not attend the 1980 Olympics because of the United States boycott.
The Ghana Olympic Committee sent a total of 9 athletes, 6 men and 3 women, to compete in 4 sports. This equaled the record number of Ghanaian athletes sent to the 2008 Olympics in Beijing, China. Five of the athletes on the team had not previously competed at the Olympic Games, while sprinter Vida Anim became the first Ghanaian female athlete to participate in a fourth Olympic Games. Alberta Ampomah became the first Ghanaian to compete in weightlifting at the Olympic Games. Heavyweight boxer and African champion Maxwell Amponsah, who later withdrew from the Games because of sustained injuries, was the nation's flag bearer at the opening ceremony. The Ghanaian team did not win any medals at the 2012 Olympics.
