South Wales Central () is an electoral region of the Senedd.

It is the only electoral region in Wales where every Senedd constituency inside it is held by one party. The Labour Party holds every seat in this region. It is the most left-leaning region of Wales, with Labour holding eight list seats (while the Conservatives and Plaid Cymru only hold two each). The region includes most of Cardiff, a traditionally working class area.
