"Aida" je název opery Giuseppe Verdiho z roku 1871. Autorem libreta je Antonio Ghislanzoni, který zpracoval látku poskytnutou egyptologem Augustem Mariettem.
Tuto operu psal Verdi ve svých 58 letech na objednávku pro operu v Káhiře, inaugurovanou roku 1869 v rámci slavností u příležitosti otevření Suezského průplavu. Tehdejší egyptský chediv Isma'il Paša Verdiho žádal o zkomponování ódy k otevření divadla, což však skladatel odmítl a operní provoz byl tedy zahájen jeho Rigolettem. Isma'il Paša však nadále lákal zdráhajícího se Verdiho ke zkomponování opery pro káhirské divadlo – zejména nabídkou vysoké odměny – a ten se nakonec rozhodl objednávku přijmout a zpracovat námět, který mu od Marietteho zprostředkoval libretista Dona Carlose Camille Du Locle.
