Live at Carnegie Hall is the fourth live album by American singer Liza Minnelli. It was originally released in 1981 by the independent label Altel Sound Systems, marking her only collaboration with the company. The album was recorded during a series of sold-out concerts at Carnegie Hall in September 1979.

Carnegie Hall carried strong personal significance for Minnelli, as her mother Judy Garland had made a historic return to the same venue in 1961. After the success of her Broadway show The Act, Minnelli sought to create a new stage presentation for these concerts, working with collaborators such as Fred Ebb, Wayne Cilento and Ron Lewis to design a theatrical performance that combined song, choreography, and dramatic interpretation.

Initially self-distributed, the double album was sold in limited quantities at Minnelli's live performances. Real Gone Music reissued the recording in 2022 as Live in New York 1979 both in red vinyl as well as a three-CD box set containing the complete concert for the first time.
