Kevin MacAdam (born February 28, 1967) is a former Canadian politician and current political advisor.

Born in West Saint Peters, the son of Stephen MacAdam, he was educated at the University of Prince Edward Island, and worked as a researcher and analyst.

MacAdam was a member of the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island from 1996 to 2006, representing the electoral district of Morell-Fortune Bay as a member of the Progressive Conservative Party. At the age of 29, he was named Minister of Fisheries, becoming the youngest cabinet minister in the history of Prince Edward Island.

MacAdam also stood as the federal Progressive Conservative candidate in Cardigan in the 2000 federal election, losing to Lawrence MacAulay by a margin of less than 300 votes. He resigned his seat in the provincial assembly to run for the federal seat but was reelected to the assembly in a subsequent by-election.

MacAdam resigned from public office and left provincial politics in the spring of 2006 to serve as a political advisor to Peter MacKay, the federal minister responsible for Prince Edward Island.
