Balgonie (2006 population 1,384; UA population 1,384) is a town in south-eastern Saskatchewan, Canada, 23 km east of Regina beside the Trans-Canada Highway.

==History==
Balgonie was named for Balgonie Castle in Scotland. In 1882, the first train ran through the area on the Canadian Pacific Railway. A post office was established in 1883, and a school was built in 1891. Balgonie was incorporated as a village in 1903 and as a town in 1907.〔 The town's population plummeted during the 1930s and 1940s, but the completion of the Trans-Canada Highway in the late 1950s brought new growth.〔
One of Balgonie's most famous residents was William Wallace Gibson (1876–1965), who created the first Canadian-built airplane. Gibson successfully flew his airplane in Victoria in 1910. Gibson was the subject of the 1991 stop-motion animated short ''The Balgonie Birdman'', directed by Brian Duchscherer and produced by the National Film Board of Canada.
