Dublin North was a parliamentary constituency represented in Dáil Éireann, the lower house of the Irish parliament or Oireachtas, from 1923 to 1937 and from 1981 to 2016. The method of election was the single transferable vote form of proportional representation (PR-STV).

It was first created for the 1923 general election with 8 seats, but was abolished for the 1937 general election. The constituency was re-created by the Electoral (Amendment) Act 1980 for the 1981 general election with 3 seats, largely replacing the former Dublin County North constituency. From 1992, it had 4 seats. It was superseded by Dublin Fingal at the 2016 general election.

From 1981 to 2016, it was located in the northern area of County Dublin, and was made up of the Balbriggan and Malahide electoral areas of Fingal County Council and the north and west Swords electoral areas (Brackenstown and Seatown). Settlements in this constituency also include Lusk, Rush, Donabate and Skerries.
