Marcel Rocque (born June 22, 1971, in St. Paul, Alberta) is a Canadian curler from Edmonton, Alberta. He is a four-time winner of The Brier, the annual Canadian men's curling championship and a three-time World Champion as the lead for the Randy Ferbey team. Rocque would play in two Alberta provincial championships as a lead for Don Walchuk before joining the Ferbey team by 1999.

In 2019, Rocque finished second in a TSN poll of broadcasters, reporters and top curlers to name the greatest Canadian male lead in curling history.[1]

In 2023 Rocque and his Team Ferbey rinkmates (Randy Ferbey, David Nedohin, and Scott Pfeifer) were inducted into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame.[2]
