The 2017 Charlottetown-Parkdale provincial by-election took place on November 27, 2017. The by-election was triggered by the resignation of the district's incumbent MLA Doug Currie on October 19.

Green Party candidate Hannah Bell won the election, becoming the second member of the party to be elected to the Legislative Assembly after Peter Bevan-Baker successfully contested the district of Kellys Cross-Cumberland in the 2015 general election.
