Impact: One Night Only is a series of professional wrestling events held by Impact Wrestling. Most events are taped and released later periodically as a three-hour pay-per-view broadcast.

Every show is themed, e.g. around the X Division or tag team division. Promoted as individual "specials", the events—unlike the live pay-per-view events—are not connected to the storylines featured on TNA's weekly television programming nor to each other, though later One Night Only events still incorporated storylines into matches and situations.
