The final of the women's artistic team all-around competition at the 2012 Summer Olympics was held at the North Greenwich Arena in London on 31 July 2012. Eight teams qualified for the final, from a total of twelve that competed in the qualification round.

Each team was composed of five gymnasts. In the final, each team selected three gymnasts to compete on each apparatus. All three scores on each apparatus were summed to give a final team score.

The United States team, known as the Fierce Five, finished first in the qualification and won the gold medal in the final. Russia won the silver, and Romania won the bronze. It was Romania's 10th consecutive Olympic medal in the event, a streak that started in 1976.

The medals were presented by Habib Macki of Oman, Aïcha Garad Ali of Djibouti, Angela Ruggiero of the United States, and members of the International Olympic Committee.
