Edmundston-Vallée-des-Rivières is a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of New Brunswick, Canada.
The riding was created in the 2006 redistribution with very similar boundaries to the previous Edmundston riding, and was given the name Edmundston-Saint Basile to reflect the fact that the district no longer included all of the City of Edmundston as the city had absorbed several outlying communities in an amalgamation in 1995. The name reflected the fact that the district included the old city of Edmundston as well as the old town of Saint Basile, New Brunswick.
In 2013, it ceded some more of Edmundston to the neighbouring Madawaska les Lacs-Edmundston, while adding rural territory to the north, east and south of Edmundston. It was accordingly renamed Edmundston-Madawaska Centre.
Following the 2023 redistribution, the riding was renamed Edmundston-Vallée-des-Rivières.
