Arthabaska is a provincial electoral district in the Centre-du-Québec region of Quebec, Canada that elects members to the National Assembly of Quebec. It notably includes municipalities of Victoriaville, Plessisville, Princeville and Saint-Christophe-d'Arthabaska.
It was created for the 1890 election from a part of Drummond-Arthabaska electoral district.
In the change from the 2001 to the 2011 electoral map, Arthabaska lost Sainte-Hélène-de-Chester and Chesterville to the newly created Drummond–Bois-Francs electoral district, but gained nine municipalities from Lotbinière, which ceased to exist.
