Yorkton is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan, Canada. It has historically almost always voted for the governing party, selecting an opposition candidate only twice in its history (1938 & 1960).

It was created when Saskatchewan became a province, replacing the territorial electoral district by the same name, which was established in 1894. The current boundaries of the constituency were set by the Representation Act, 2012 (Saskatchewan).

Founded as "York City" in 1882, Yorkton (pop. 15,038) became a city on February 1, 1928.
