The 2011 Triple J Hottest 100 was announced on Australia Day 26 January 2012. It is the nineteenth countdown of the most popular songs of the year, as chosen by the listeners of Australian radio station Triple J.

Voting commenced on 14 December 2011, and closed on 16 January 2012. A separate poll for the most popular album of the year was held in late November and early December 2011, with Making Mirrors by Gotye being voted the most popular album of the year.

On 8 February 2012, Triple J announced the tracks voted #101 to #200

This edition was hosted by Triple J presenter Caroline Tran, instead of regular presenter Richard Kingsmill. It was broadcast on 11 December, the final show of "2011" for 2011. It was announced that Making Mirrors won by an unprecedented margin.

Voting was held from 25 November right until the day before the countdown (10 December).
