The Alliance Party (Malay: Parti Perikatan) was a political coalition in Malaysia. Formed in 1951, it successfully gained the majority of seats available for contest in the first election for the Federal Legislative Council held in 1955 in what was then the British protectorate of the Federation of Malaya.

The Alliance Party, whose membership comprised UMNO, MCA and MIC, was formally registered as a political organisation on 30 October 1957.

The Alliance Party is credited with winning Malayan independence from British rule, Hari Merdeka, on 31 August 1957 and the formation of the Federation of Malaysia on 16 September 1963.

In 1973, the Alliance Party was replaced by Barisan Nasional.
