The 2023 Currie Cup Premier Division was the 85th edition of the Currie Cup, the premier domestic rugby union competition in South Africa. The competition was sponsored by beer brand Carling Black Label and organised by the South African Rugby Union.[1]

The tournament was played from Friday 10 March 2023 to Saturday 24 June 2023.[2] This follows the realignment of the South African domestic rugby union calendar to dovetail with the northern hemisphere and the United Rugby Championship, which features four South African sides.

The Free State Cheetahs won the tournament final 25-17 against the Pumas to claim their 7th overall Currie Cup title

The competition featured an increased eight teams this season, with Griffons earning promotion into the Currie Cup Premier Division, after winning the 2022 Currie Cup First Division.[3]
