Banff was a provincial electoral district, in south west Alberta, Canada. The riding has existed twice, the first incarnation was created in 1905 when Alberta formed as a province. The riding was carried over from the old Banff riding that existed from 1891 to 1905 in the Northwest Territories. The riding disappeared only one election later when it was merged into the newly formed Rocky Mountain Riding. The second incarnation was when Banff-Cochrane was renamed Banff during the 1975 redistribution, it was changed back to Banff-Cochrane during the 1979 election.
