The Parliament of Dalmatia (Croatian: Dalmatinski sabor; Serbian: Dalmatinski sabor; Italian: Dieta della Dalmazia) was the regional parliament of the former Kingdom of Dalmatia within the Austro-Hungarian Empire. It was founded in 1861 in Zadar and was eventually abondaned in the early 1900s.

The Autonomists (pro-Italian) held their position as the parliamentary majority from the founding of the Dalmatian parliament until 1870, when the People's Party (Croatian) won the parliamentary elections that year.
