Saskatoon—Humboldt was a federal electoral district in Saskatchewan, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1968 to 1979, and from 1988 to 2015.

The riding consisted of the northeastern quadrant of Saskatoon and the city of Humboldt and the rural towns of Naicam, Wakaw and Watson. The riding extended to Quill Lake in the east, Pleasantdale in the northeast and St. Louis in the north.

This electoral district was first created in 1966 from Humboldt—Melfort, Rosthern (electoral district) and Saskatoon ridings.

It was abolished in 1976 and divided amongst Humboldt—Lake Centre, Prince Albert and Saskatoon East ridings.

It was re-created in 1987 from Humboldt—Lake Centre, Prince Albert and Saskatoon East ridings.

It was abolished in 2013. Most of the Saskatoon portion became part of Saskatoon—University, with a smaller portion going to Saskatoon—Grasswood. The rural portion was split between Carlton Trail—Eagle Creek, Yorkton—Melville and Moose Jaw—Lake Centre—Lanigan.
