Tin Pan Alley adalah nama yang diberikan kepada kelompok penerbit musik dan penulis lagu New York City yang mendominasi musik populer Amerika Serikat pada akhir abad ke-19 dan awal abad ke-20. Nama ini awalnya digunakan untuk menyebut satu tempat tertentu, yaitu West 28th Street antara Fifth dan Sixth Avenue di Manhattan, dan sebuah plakat di trotoar 28th Street antara Broadway dan Sixth memperingati keberadaan kelompok ini. Blok ini sekarang dianggap sebagai bagian dari permukiman NoMad Manhattan.

Tin Pan Alley berawal sekitar tahun 1885, ketika sekelompok penerbit musik mendirikan toko di distrik yang sama di Manhattan. Akhir Tin Pan Alley tidak jelas. Beberapa orang menyebutkan mereka berakhir pada awal Depresi Besar tahun 1930-an ketika fonograf dan radio menggantikan musik lembaran sebagai penggerak utama musik populer Amerika, sementara beberapa lainnya menganggap Tin Pan Alley terus berlanjut sampai 1950-an ketika gaya-gaya awal musik populer Amerika dikalahkan dengan kemunculan rock & roll.
