Swimming competitions at the 2015 Pan American Games in Toronto will be held from July 14 to 18 at the Toronto Pan Am Sports Centre (CIBC Pan Am/Parapan Am Aquatics Centre and Field House). Due to naming rights the arena will be known as the latter for the duration of the games.^[1] Due to Pan American Games being scheduled to be held roughly around the same time as the 2015 World Aquatics Championships scheduled for Kazan, Russia, the swimming events were condensed into a five day schedule.^[2]

• freestyle: 50, 100, 200, 400, 800 (females only) and 1500 (males only);
• backstroke: 100 and 200;
• breaststroke: 100 and 200;
• butterfly: 100 and 200;
