Alberton is a metropolitan suburb in Adelaide, South Australia, about 20 minutes drive from the city. Part of the City of Port Adelaide Enfield, it is bordered by the suburbs of Rosewater, Queenstown, Cheltenham and Port Adelaide.

Alberton, like Port Adelaide, is rich in historical significance. On 7 March 1839, the South Australian Company was granted private subdivision of preliminary section 423. Section 423 was sold as 'The Town of Albert' and subsequently became 'Albert Town' after Prince Albert, Prince Consort of Queen Victoria. Eventually, 'Alberton' became commonly used and around the turn of the century was officially adopted as the suburb's name.Alberton is home to Australian rules football team Port Adelaide, who participate in the national Australian Football League (AFL) and the Adelaide-based South Australian National Football League (SANFL).The District Council of Queenstown and Alberton, established in 1864, was the first local government body in Alberton. From 1898 following the annexation of Queenstown and Alberton by Port Adelaide, Alberton was a prominent township at the south eastern end of the Port Adelaide council area. Port Adelaide council merged with Enfield council in 1996 to become the City of Port Adelaide Enfield, which now provides local government to Alberton.
