The East Bay Express is an Oakland-based weekly newspaper serving the Berkeley, Oakland and East Bay region of the San Francisco Bay Area. It is distributed throughout Alameda County and parts of Contra Costa County every Wednesday.

The Express is known for its investigative and longform news and feature stories, along with its award-winning arts, food and wine coverage.[1] The paper is also well known for its opinionated viewpoint and for engaging in advocacy journalism.[2]

A typical issue of the Express contains one or two in-depth news stories; an "Eco Watch" column about environmental issues; a political column called Seven Days; a cover story, events and music listings; music, dining and movie reviews; a culture column; a parenting column; a tech column; and the syndicated Free Will Astrology column. Daedalus Howell served as editor-at-large after its sale by Telegraph Media to Metro Newspapers in the spring of 2020. As of September 1, 2023, Samantha Campos was named editor.
