La Dade Kotopon Municipal District is one of the twenty-nine districts in Greater Accra Region, Ghana. Originally it was formerly part of the then-larger Accra Metropolitan District in 1988 (later as a sub-metropolitan district council on 2003), until the eastern portion of the district was split off to create La Dade Kotopon Municipal District on 28 June 2012; thus the remaining part has been retained as Accra Metropolitan District. The municipality is located in the central part of Greater Accra Region and has La as its capital town.

La Dade Kotopon is one of the twelve districts that make up the Accra Metropolitan Area, an area that serves as the capital of Ghana.
