The Very Best of Bananarama is one of several greatest hits collections by English girl group Bananarama.

Released by Warner Music Group, parent company of Bananarama's label London Records, this set is the "official" hits package released to celebrate the group's twentieth anniversary. Hits included here span their history from 1981 to 1993. It reached #43 on the UK Albums Chart.

This compilation features the "single" versions of the songs. Various tracks had been edited or remixed from their original album versions for their releases as singles and in the case of "I Want You Back" and "Nathan Jones", the vocals were re-recorded after original member Siobhan Fahey had left the group and been replaced by Jacquie O'Sullivan. "Nathan Jones" was also included on the Rain Man soundtrack as well as their Greatest Hits Collection.

A limited edition of The Very Best of Bananarama, released in 2002, contained a second disc of remixes and replaced the "Tempus Fugit megamix" for the Miami mix of "I Heard a Rumour".
