Aberdeen North is a burgh constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom and it elects one Member of Parliament (MP) by the first past the post system of election. It was first used in the 1885 general election, but has undergone various boundary changes since that date. The seat has been held by Kirsty Blackman of the Scottish National Party since 2015.

At the 2019 general election, the constituency had the largest SNP vote share and relative majority, effectively making it the safest SNP seat, although this majority was heavily reduced at the subsequent 2024 election.^[1][2]

There was also an Aberdeen North constituency of the Scottish Parliament, created in 1999 with the boundaries of the Westminster seat of that time. This constituency was abolished in 2011, its area thereafter being covered by the new constituencies of Aberdeen Donside and Aberdeen Central.
