Tredegar is a town in the county borough of Blaenau Gwent, traditional county of Monmouthshire, lying on the Sirhowy River in southern Wales, United Kingdom. The town is believed to have come into being with the establishment of the Sirhowy Ironworks and later the Tredegar Ironworks. The historic Tredegar Iron Works in Richmond, Virginia, United States was named in honour of the town.

It is home to Bryn Bach Pond, a country park. A colliery winding house is located in nearby New Tredegar.

Tredegar has strong links with prominent Labour MPs. It was the birthplace of Aneurin Bevan, who was responsible for the introduction of the British National Health Service (NHS). It was also the birthplace of former Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock and his predecessor Michael Foot was MP for the local constituency - Blaenau Gwent - during his time as party leader.

Snooker star Ray Reardon was also born in Tredegar.
