The Liberal Party of Sweden (Swedish: Sveriges Liberala Parti) was a political party in Sweden. It was formed in 1923 by the anti-prohibition minority of the Free-minded National Association as a consequence of the split over the issue on alcohol prohibition.

In 1934 the two parties reunited in the form of the People's Party.[1]
