In this paper, we propose an absolutely stabilized mixed virtual element method (mixed VEM) for the incompressible Stokes equations. We employ the $C^0$-conforming virtual element space for the velocity and discontinuous polynomial space for the pressure. The velocity-pressure pair contains"arbitrary-order" polynomials, and stability is guaranteed by the"absolutely stabilized finite element formulation" originally introduced in [21]. We establish error estimates in the energy norm for both velocity and pressure, as well as an $L^2-$ error estimate for the velocity. Several numerical experiments validate the theoretical analysis.
