The list of Quebec by-elections includes every by-election held in the Canadian province of Quebec since Confederation.

Causes[edit]
A by-election occurs whenever there is a vacancy in the Quebec legislature. Vacancies can occur for the following reasons:
- Death of a member.
- Resignation of a member.
- Voided results
- Expulsion from the legislature.
- Ineligibility to sit.
- Appointment to the Legislative Council, Quebec's appointed upper house, which was abolished in 1968.
- Appointment to the cabinet. Until 1927 incumbent members recontested their seats upon being appointed to Cabinet. These Ministerial by-elections were almost always uncontested.
