The billiards competition at the 2022 World Games took place from July 13 to July 17 at the ballroom of the Sheraton Birmingham Hotel. It consisted of three events, "Carom - 3 Cushion", "Pool - 9-Ball", and "Snooker".

The Birmingham edition marked the sixth time billiards was included as a regular event at the World Games. All three games are played under the auspices of the World Confederation of Billiards Sports, headquartered in Sint-Martens-Latem, Belgium.
