Luton North is a constituency[n 1] represented in the House of Commons of the UK Parliament since 2019 by Sarah Owen, of the Labour Party.

Further to the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies, which came into effect for the 2024 general election, the composition of the constituency was expanded with the transfer of the Luton Borough ward of Stopsley (as it existed on 1 December 2020) from Luton South.
