The Diocese of Lipari was a Latin Church diocese of the Catholic Church located in the town of Lipari in the Aeolian Islands of Sicily, Italy. The diocese consisted of the entire island of Lipari as well as seven smaller adjacent islands. In 1986, it was suppressed, and its territory incorporated into the Archdiocese of Messina-Lipari-Santa Lucia del Mela.
