Kowloon East is a Hong Kong geographical constituency in the Legislative Council of Hong Kong.

The constituency loosely corresponds to the today's districts of Wong Tai Sin and Kwun Tong.

The constituency was formed since the 1998 legislative election, replacing a number of single-member constituencies in 1995. These were Kowloon East and parts of Kowloon Central in the 1991 election with dual-seat constituency dual vote system and Kowloon Southeast, Kowloon East, and Kowloon Northeast in the 1995 election. From 1985 to 1991, the seats were elected by the electoral colleges composed of the members of the district boards and Urban Council.

Below are all the members since the creation of the Kowloon East constituency. The number of seats allocated to Kowloon East has been increased from 3 to 4 between 1998 and 2008 due to the enlargement.

The largest remainder method (with Hare quota) of the proportional representative electoral system was introduced in 1998, replacing the single-member constituencies of the 1995 election. Elected candidates are shown in bold. Brackets indicate the quota + remainder.
