Fidesz–KDNP Party Alliance (Hungarian: Fidesz–KDNP Pártszövetség), is a far-right,[9] illiberal,[10] national conservative political alliance of two political parties in Hungary, the Fidesz and the Christian Democratic People's Party (KDNP).

The two parties have run on a joint list in every election since the 2006 parliamentary elections. The alliance has governed Hungary between 2010 and 2026 with supermajority.
