Hawaii Territory's at-large congressional district was the congressional district for the Territory of Hawaii, which was established by the Newlands Resolution of 1898.

Hawaii Territory's at-large congressional district
Obsolete district
Delegate	N/A
Created	1900, as a non-voting delegate was granted by Congress
Eliminated	1959, as a result of statehood

On April 30, 1900, the Hawaiian Organic Act gave the Territory the authority to elect a single non-voting congressional delegate.[1][2]

After Hawaii's admission to the Union as the 50th state by act of Congress on August 21, 1959, this district was replaced by Hawaii's at-large congressional district.
