Peter O'Mahony (born 17 September 1989 in Cork, Ireland) is an Irish rugby union player. He plays for Munster in the Pro12 and European Rugby Champions Cup and for Ireland internationally. O'Mahony can play across the Back-Row.

Having attended Presentation Brothers College, Cork, O'Mahony went on to enter the Munster Academy in 2008 and captained Ireland U20 at the 2009 Six Nations Under-20s Championship and 2009 IRB Junior World Championship. He also won the 2009–10 AIB Cup with Cork Constitution and was named Man-of-the-Match in the final.

O'Mahony made his Munster debut against Ulster on 2 January 2010. He captained Munster A to the final of the inaugural British and Irish Cup in the 2009–10 season.

O'Mahony was promoted to a full development contract with Munster for the 2010–11 season. He was an integral part of the team when the internationals were away for the November Tests, putting in a big performance in Munster's historic 15–6 victory against Australia, a game which was also O'Mahony's first start for Munster.

O'Mahony captained Munster in their opening Pro12 match against Newport Gwent Dragons in September 2011, and continued to captain Munster whilst the international contingent were away at the 2011 Rugby World Cup. He made his Heineken Cup debut for Munster against Northampton Saints on 12 November 2011, a game in which he won the Man-of-the-Match award. He scored his first try for Munster on 19 November 2011, in Munster's second Heinken Cup Pool One game against Castres Olympique. O'Mahony won the Munster Young Player of the Year for the 2011–12 season. He captained Munster in their 2011–12 Pro 12 away play-off semi-final against Ospreys on 11 May 2012, which Munster lost 45–10.
