"On a Night Like This" is a song recorded by Australian recording artist Kylie Minogue. It was released on 11 September 2000 by Parlophone as the second single for her seventh studio album, Light Years (2000), and distributed in various formats. The track was originally written for Swedish singer Pandora by Steve Torch, Brian Rawling, Graham Stack, and Mark Taylor, while production was handled by the latter two; for unknown reasons, it was handed to Minogue to record. Musically, "On a Night Like This" is a dance song that incorporates elements of disco. Its lyrical content delves on experiencing unique experiences during the night.

Upon its release, "On a Night Like This" generally received favourable reviews from music critics. Some of them complimented the production and its dance sound, whilst some noted that it didn't stand out among other tracks from Light Years. Commercially, it experienced success in Australia and the United Kingdom, peaking at number one and number two, respectively. Elsewhere, it performed moderately and reached the top 40 in countries such as Sweden, Ireland, Finland, and New Zealand. An accompanying music video was shot by Douglas Avery, with its plot being inspired by the Martin Scorsese 1995 film Casino.

To promote the single, Minogue added it to the set list of the majority of her concert tours and live albums, including her 2000 titular concert tour, her Showgirl: The Greatest Hits Tour, and most recently her Kylie Summer 2015 concert venue. Since its release, it has been selected by contemporary critics as one of her most recognisable and career-defining tracks. "On a Night Like This" has been re-distributed as an acoustic version for her 2014 greatest hits album, The Abbey Road Sessions.
