Shine On is a 1992 nine-CD box set by Pink Floyd which was released through EMI Records in the United Kingdom and Columbia Records in the United States to coincide with Pink Floyd's 25th anniversary as a recording and touring band. All CDs were digitally remastered.

The eight albums included in this box set are:

The packaging on each of the previously-released albums was unique to this set. The eight black CD cases lined up to show the prism from The Dark Side of the Moon.

Included with the box set was a hardcover book chronicling the career of Pink Floyd from its inception to the late 1980s.

According to drummer Nick Mason, a suggestion for the title of the box set was The Big Bong Theory.[1] David Gilmour said calling the box set Shine On was not a bowing out retirement box set but a continuation.[clarification needed][1]
