The 8th General Junta was the meeting of the General Junta, the parliament of the Principality of Asturias, with the membership determined by the results of the regional election held on 22 May 2011.

It is the shortest meeting of the democratic General Junta as it ended after then President of Asturias, Francisco Álvarez-Cascos, called a snap election, being the first non-historic autonomous community (different from Andalusia, Catalonia, the Basque Country or Galicia) to do so.

At the election, Asturias Forum (FAC), a split from the People's Party (PP), won the most seats despite PSOE obtaining more votes.

Fernando Goñi (PP) was elected as the president of the General Junta, with the support of PP and PSOE.
