Lardeya Ice Piedmont ([ледник Лардея] Error: {{Lang-xx}}: text has italic markup (help), ‘Lednik Lardeya’ \'led-nik lar-'de-ya\) is the glacier extending 16 km in north-south direction and 7.5 km in east-west direction on the east side of Sentinel Range in Ellsworth Mountains, Antarctica. It is draining the northeast slopes of Flowers Hills to flow into Rutford Ice Stream to the east-northeast and Ellen Glacier to the north.

The feature is named after the medieval fortress of Lardeya in southeastern Bulgaria.
