Asterix in Britain (also known as "Asterix in the land of the Britons" - translated from French: Astérix chez les Bretons) is a French comic story, written by Rene Goscinny and illustrated by Albert Uderzo. It is the eighth story in the Asterix comic book series, and was originally published by Dargaud as a serial for Pilote magazine in 1965, before being released as a comic album in 1966.

The story focuses on Asterix and Obelix travelling to Roman-occupied Britain to help deliver a barrel of magic potion to a rebel Briton village, only to encounter obstacles that hinder their journey. The story featured several references and parodies surrounding British culture and society.

Asterix in Britain received an audiobook adaptation, as well as two film adaptations: an animated film of the same name in 1986; and a live-action film, Asterix and Obelix: God Save Britannia, in 2012.
