The Men's 94 kg weightlifting event at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom, took place at ExCeL London.^[1]

Total score was the sum of the lifter's best result in each of the snatch and the clean and jerk, with three lifts allowed for each lift. In case of a tie, the lighter lifter won; if still tied, the lifter who took the fewest attempts to achieve the total score won. Lifters without a valid snatch score did not perform the clean and jerk.^[2]

Kazakhstan's Ilya Ilyin broke a world record in the clean and jerk with a lift of 233 kilograms, as well as a world record for total weightage with 418 kilograms. Ukraine's Artem Ivanov was on the start list^[3] but was disqualified for weighing in 500 grams over the limit.
