The New Popular Front (French: Nouveau Front populaire [nuvo fʁɔ̃ pɔpylɛːʁ], NFP),^[b][c] is a broad left-wing electoral alliance in France launched on 10 June 2024 to fight the 2024 legislative election. The Front brings together La France Insoumise, the Socialist Party, The Ecologists, the French Communist Party, Génération.s, Place Publique, and other centre-left and left-wing political parties, while pushing for a mobilisation of associations, organised labour, and civil society. With the unifying motive of defeating the far-right National Rally, its name echoes the interwar anti-fascist alliance, the Popular Front.

The Front's common programme includes scrapping the 2023 French pension reform law, increasing public sector salaries and welfare benefits, raising the minimum wage by 14 percent, and freezing the price of basic food items and energy. This would be funded by reintroducing a wealth tax, cancelling many tax breaks for the wealthy, and raising income tax on the highest earners. On other issues, such as foreign policy and European integration, the Front's policies are closer to the centre-left.
