We evaluate the cross sections for {ital W}{sup +}W{sup {minus}}W{sup +}W{sup {minus}} and {ital ZZZZ} production in {ital e}{sup +}{sup e}{sup {minus}} and {ital pp} collisions. For four-{ital W} production, the predicted cross section is 0.7--1.8 fb at a {radical}{ital s} =2 TeV {ital e}{sup +}{sup e}{sup {minus}} collider, and 6--23 fb at the Superconducting Super Collider, depending on the Higgs-boson mass. The Higgs-boson contributions to four-weak-boson production processes are more significant than in the case of three-weak-boson production and would enhance the above cross sections by about a factor of 4 if {ital m}{sub {ital H}}{similar to}0.3 TeV.
