The Quezon Provincial Board is the Sangguniang Panlalawigan (provincial legislature) of the Philippine province of Quezon.

The members are elected via plurality-at-large voting: the province is divided into four districts, the first and third districts sending two members each, and the second and fourth districts sending three members each to the provincial board; the number of candidates the electorate votes for and the number of winning candidates depends on the number of members their district sends. The vice governor is the ex officio presiding officer, and only votes to break ties. The vice governor is elected via the plurality voting system province-wide.

The districts used in appropriation of members is coextensive with the legislative districts of Quezon, with the exception that Lucena, an independent component city, is excluded in the second district.

Aside from the regular members, the board also includes the provincial federation presidents of the Liga ng mga Barangay (ABC, from its old name "Association of Barangay Captains"), the Sangguniang Kabataan (SK, youth councils) and the Philippine Councilors League (PCL).
