Yesh Atid (Hebrew: יֵשׁ עָתִיד, lit. 'There Is a Future') is a centrist, liberal Zionist political party in Israel. It was founded in 2012 by former TV journalist Yair Lapid, the son of the former Shinui party politician and Israeli Justice Minister Tommy Lapid.

In 2013 the first election it contested in, Yesh Atid placed second, winning 19 seats in the 120-seat Knesset.[17][18] It then entered into a coalition led by the Likud party. In the 2015 election the party refused to back the Likud; after suffering a significant setback and losing seats it joined the opposition.

On 21 February 2019, Yesh Atid united with the Israel Resilience Party to form a centrist alliance named Blue and White for the upcoming election.[19][20] Yesh Atid and Telem left the alliance on 29 March 2020 and formed an independent faction in the Knesset.[21] Yesh Atid ran in the 2021 election alone and won 17 seats, the second-largest party in the Knesset, making up the largest party in Israel's governing coalition at the time, with party leader Yair Lapid serving as Prime Minister in 2022.

In the 2022 elections Yesh Atid won 24 seats, more than in any previous election, but was unable to form a government. Likud, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, formed a government, with Yesh Atid returning to opposition.
