The Honourable Legislature of Tucumán Province (Spanish: Honorable Legislatura de la Provincia de Tucumán) is the unicameral legislative body of Tucumán Province, in Argentina. It convenes in the provincial capital, San Miguel de Tucumán.

It comprises 49 legislators, elected in three multi-member electoral sections through proportional representation every four years. Elections employ the D'Hondt system. The electoral sections do not correspond to the 17 departments of Tucumán, but rather group different departments together.

Its powers and responsibilities are established in the provincial constitution. The legislature is presided by the Vice Governor of Tucumán (presently Osvaldo Jaldo of the Justicialist Party), who is elected alongside the governor.
