Saskatoon City was a provincial electoral division in the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. This constituency existed from 1908 to 1967. It was the riding of Premier James T.M. Anderson.

The riding was created for the 1908 election to separate the rapidly growing city of Saskatoon from the original riding of Saskatoon, which was renamed Saskatoon County. During the 15th Saskatchewan Legislative Assembly (from 1964 to 1967), an amendment to the Representation Act divided Saskatoon City into several electoral divisions:

From 1921 to 1967 Saskatoon City was one of three districts in the province that elected more than one representative to the Legislature. Thus, multiple MLAs elected from this constituency will be noted in bold type.
