Martensville was a provincial electoral district for the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan, Canada, named after the city of Martensville, located north of Saskatoon.
The electoral district was created through the Representation Act, 2002 (Saskatchewan), mostly out of the former constituency of Rosthern. The city of Warman was also located in the riding. Smaller communities in the district included the towns of Hague, Waldheim, Osler, and Dalmeny; and the village of Hepburn.
The constituency was abolished for the 2016 election. It was essentially replaced by Martensville-Warman, a new constituency encompassing a portion of the old electoral district.
