Tonypandy is a town in the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taff, traditional county of Glamorgan, south Wales, lying in the Rhondda Fawr Valley.

The town lies near the Mynydd y Gelli Iron and Bronze Age settlement and stone circle. Famous people from the town include George Thomas, 1st Viscount Tonypandy.

A major event in the town's history was the Tonypandy Riot of 1910.

Tonypandy is also a term coined by the character Alan Grant in Josephine Tey's 1951 novel The Daughter of Time for faulty collective memory or popular history. The widely-known account of a historical event (such as the Tonypandy Riot), it is argued, may very well be entirely fallacious.

Tonypandy has a King George's Field, the Athletics Ground, in memorial to King George V
