# Gymnastics at the 1956 Summer Olympics – Women's artistic individual all-around

These are the results of the women's artistic individual all-around competition, one of six events for female competitors in artistic gymnastics at the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne.

## Competition format

The gymnastics competition continued to use the aggregation format. Each nation entered either a team of six gymnasts or up to three individual gymnasts. All entrants in the gymnastics competitions performed both a compulsory exercise and a voluntary exercise for each apparatus. The 8 exercise scores were summed to give an individual all-around total. No separate finals were contested.
Exercise scores ranged from 0 to 10, apparatus scores from 0 to 20, and individual totals from 0 to 80.
