Zoltán Fábián (born 22 April 1969) is a male hammer thrower from Hungary. His personal best throw is 78.20 metres, achieved in June 1998 in Budapest.[1]

He competed at the 1994 European Championships and the 1997 World Championships, but without reaching the final.[2] He never became national champion; the competition from Tibor Gécsek, Balázs Kiss, Adrián Annus and Zsolt Németh was too strong,[3] but he did win a bronze medal in 1994.[1]

Continuing as a Masters athlete, he won the M45 division at the 2015 World Masters Athletics Championships.
