Calgary East was a federal electoral district in Alberta, Canada, that was represented in the House of Commons of Canada from 1917 to 1953, 1979 to 1988, from 1997 to 2015. It was a lower income urban riding in Calgary, with a sizable visible minority population.

Following the 2022 Canadian federal electoral redistribution, this riding will be restored at the first election held after April 22, 2024. It will be created out of Calgary Forest Lawn south of 16 Ave NE plus part of Vista Heights, and part of Calgary Shepard north of a line following 130 Ave SE to 52 St SE to Glenmore Trail.[2]
