The Haugesund Region () is a geographically distinct city region in Norway, consisting of the five municipalities of Haugesund, Karmøy, Tysvær, Sveio, and Bokn. As of 1 January 2026, the region has a total population of 101,076.
The Haugesund Region is one of Norway's officially defined statistical metropolitan areas and is classified as a city region (byregion). The classification originates from the Norwegian government's white paper on large cities (Storbymeldingen), prepared by the Ministry of Local Government and Regional Development in 2002âÂÂ2003 to establish a coherent national policy for the development of metropolitan areas. The report was presented to the Storting on 12 March 2003 by then Minister of Local Government and Regional Development, Erna Solberg.

Each region is defined by a central urban municipality and a selection of surrounding municipalities.
The Haugesund Region is divided into four municipalities in Rogaland county and one in Vestland county:
