"Hell of a Night" is a song recorded by American country music artist Dustin Lynch. It was released in November 2014 as the second single from his second studio album, Where It's At. The song was written by Zach Crowell, Adam Sanders and Jaron Boyer and produced by Mickey Jack Cones.

"Hell of a Night" reached number one on the Billboard Country Airplay chart, giving Lynch his second number-one hit on that chart. It also peaked at numbers 7 and 55 on both the Hot Country Songs and Hot 100 charts respectively. The song was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and has sold 295,000 units as of September 2015. It also charted in Canada, peaking at number 8 on the Canada Country chart and number 95 on the Canadian Hot 100 chart. An accompanying music video for the single was directed by Michael Monaco and features Lynch giving a live performance to a large audience.

Giving it a "C", Jon Freeman of Country Weekly wrote that "Dustin Lynch offers this unnecessarily heavy and dirge-like song about having a good time that sounds more like the soundtrack to an angst-ridden teenager's lonely Friday night of video games and Mountain Dew. It also awkwardly equates a minor-key melody and hard guitar stabs with 'sexy'," while adding that the production had "interesting guitar effects" and that Lynch "pushes himself vocally."

The music video was directed by Michael Monaco and premiered in May 2015. The video features Lynch giving a live performance to a large audience.

On September 2, 2015, Lynch performed the song on NBC's Today.
