The Division of Lyons is one of the five multi-member electorates in the Tasmanian House of Assembly. It is named after Sir Joseph Lyons and his wife, Dame Enid Lyons.
It is located in the state's central and east. A few outer suburbs of Launceston are in Lyons. It shares the same boundaries as the federal Division of Lyons, which only has one member.
