Ballymun (Irish: Baile Munna) is a suburb of Dublin, Ireland, at the northern edge of the city's Northside. The population was 22,321 at the 2022 census. Ballymun is close to Dublin Airport and borders the suburbs of Finglas, Glasnevin and Santry.

The area was noted for the rapid and massive development of publicly funded housing in the 1960s, especially the high-rise Ballymun Flats, and subsequent social issues, as well as a strong culture of community organisation. In the early 2000s, it was the subject of a billion euro regeneration scheme, which delivered new housing stock to replace the towers of flats, but left the area with few retail facilities, and was connected with the closure of many community groups. As part of the regeneration, major arts projects were funded, including the establishment of a civic theatre and the mass tree-planting social artwork amaptocare.
