Swift Current is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan, Canada. Located in southwestern Saskatchewan, it was created for the 2nd Saskatchewan general election in 1908. The riding consists almost entirely of the city of Swift Current, except for a rural area bordering the west side of the city.
Two Saskatchewan premiers have been elected from this constituency — Thomas Walter Scott, the first premier of the province; and Brad Wall, the 14th premier.
