Stratford-on-Avon is a local government district of southern Warwickshire in England.

The district is named "Stratford-on-Avon" to distinguish it from its main town of Stratford-upon-Avon which is where the administrative headquarters are located.

The district is mostly rural and covers most of the southern half of Warwickshire. The district also includes the towns of Alcester, Southam, and Shipston-on-Stour.

The district was formed on April 1, 1974 by the merger of the borough of Stratford-upon-Avon, Alcester Rural District , Shipston-on-Stour Rural District , Southam Rural District and a majority of Stratford-upon-Avon Rural District .
