The 2022 Premier Volleyball League Open Conference was the eleventh conference of the Premier Volleyball League, its second conference as a professional league, and the first conference of the 2022 season.

The conference was held from March 16 to April 8, 2022, pending restrictions brought by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Nine teams competed on this conference as Chery Tiggo 7 Pro Crossovers looks to defend their championship. F2 Logistics Cargo Movers will have their debut in the Premier Volleyball League. ^[1] Two teams from the previous conference, Sta. Lucia Lady Realtors and Perlas Spikers, filed for leave of absence from the league and released all of their players. ^[5]
