Disco (stylised in all caps) is the fifteenth studio album by Australian singer Kylie Minogue. BMG Rights Management and Minogue's company Darenote released it on 6 November 2020 in both digital and physical formats. After finishing her campaign with her previous album Golden (2019), Minogue was inspired by a Studio 54-esque section on her Golden Tour to create a disco-themed album. Early sessions began in 2019-2020, but were temporarily halted due to the COVID-19 pandemic and widespread lockdowns. As a result, Minogue continued to work on the album remotely from London, using GarageBand and Logic Pro for the first time.

Disco includes a variety of aesthetics from the same-named genre, interpreting both traditional and modern concepts. Furthermore, escapism and a sense of hope were used as themes throughout the album, with lyrics discussing unity, love, having fun on the dancefloor, and celebration. The album also incorporates various genres from the 1970s to the 2000s, such as Dance, funk, and pop music, which were compared to her previous records and other musical acts. Minogue is credited as a songwriter on all tracks and engineered her vocals on majority of the record herself.

Music critics praised Disco for its production quality, catchiness, fun nature, and innovative approach to disco music. Since its release, the album has received numerous nominations and awards, as well as inclusion on various end-of-year critics lists. Commercially, the album was a success, reaching the top of the record charts in Australia, Scotland, and the United Kingdom and being certified gold by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI) in the latter region. It also reached the top ten in Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand, Spain, and Switzerland. Since its release, the album has sold more than 700,000 units worldwide.

To promote the album, Disco spawned three singles: "Say Something", "Magic" and "Real Groove". In addition, two promotional singles from the album were released ("I Love It" and "Dance Floor Darling"), while album tracks "Miss a Thing" and "Supernova" achieved some commercial success during the release week of Disco. Minogue made several live appearances and performed songs from the album on television shows. She hosted Infinite Disco, a livestream show which was later published on a live release and DVD. Finally, Disco spawned two more releases: Disco: Guest List Edition, a reissue with additional tracks, and Disco: Extended Mixes, a remix album with extended versions of the original tracks.
