Data Darbar (Punjabi: داتا دربار, romanized: Dātā Darbār) is an Islamic shrine located in Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan. It is the largest Sufi shrine in South Asia and was built to house the remains of Ali al-Hujwiri, also known as Data Ganj Baksh or more colloquially as Data Sahab, a Sufi saint who came from Ghazni to Lahore in the 11th century CE, during the Ghaznavid period.

The site is considered to be the most sacred place in Lahore, and attracts up to one million visitors to its annual urs festival.
