Celtic Woman er en irsk musikgruppe udelukkende bestående af kvinder, som blev dannet i 2004 til et éngangarrangement i Dublin, Irland. De begyndte at turnere international som gruppe efter at være bliver spillet på PBS, hvilket hjalp dem med et gennembrud.[1][2]

Celtic Woman udgav deres debutalbum Celtic Woman i 2004, og siden har de udgivet mere end 20 albums og solgt over 9 millioner eksemplarer på verdensplan.[3] Gruppens sammensætning har ændret sig meget igennem årene og har inkluderet både sangere og violinist€r. Den blev grundlagt med Chloë Agnew, Órla Fallon, Lisa Kelly, Méav Ní Mhaolchatha og Máiréad Nesbitt, men bestod i juli 2023 af Mairéad Carlin, Tara McNeill, Muirgen O'Mahony og Emma Warren. De er blevet beskrevet som værende "Riverdance for stemmen."[4]

Celtic Woman har modtaget Billboard World Album Artist of the Year seks gange.[5][6]
