Τα Θεοξένια ήταν ιερή γιορτή και αθλητικοί αγώνες που γίνονταν στην αρχαία Πελλήνη. Διεξάγονταν στην Αχαϊκή Πελλήνη και γίνονταν προς τιμήν του Απόλλωνα Θεοξενίου σε στάδιο που βρισκόταν κοντά στο ιερό. Στους αγώνες συμμετείχαν και αθλητές από όλη την Ελλάδα και οι νικητές έπαιρναν ως έπαθλο έναν μάλλινο μανδύα. Ο Πίνδαρος, στις ωδές που έχει γράψει, αναφέρει πολλούς αθλητές που είχαν νικήσει στα Θεοξένια.
