These are the official results of the Men's Pole Vault event at the 1983 IAAF World Championships in Helsinki, Finland. There were a total number of 27 participating athletes. The qualification round was stopped and later canceled due to heavy rain and strong winds and eventually a straight final was held on 14 August, the last day of the championships.
