Metropolitan Greater Nancy (French: Métropole Grand Nancy) (formerly the Urban Community of Greater Nancy) is the French intercommunal structure gathering the city of Nancy and some of its suburbs, in Grand Est.

The Urban Community of Greater Nancy (French: Communauté urbaine du Grand Nancy), was created in 1996.

The Metropolitan Council consists of 80 members, one of them being the president, currently André Rossinot, the former mayor of Nancy.
