The 67th General Assembly of Prince Edward Island is the 67th sitting of the Legislative Assembly of Prince Edward Island and the 41st since confederation in 1873. The membership of the assembly was determined by the 2023 Prince Edward Island general election, where the Progressive Conservative Party of Prince Edward Island, led by Dennis King, won a majority of seats. It was then reduced by one following the by-election of Green MLA Matt MacFarlane. Dennis King resigned as both premier and MLA for Brackley-Hunter River on 21 February 2025, and was succeeded by Rob Lantz.
