Belægringen af Drogheda eller Drogheda-massakren fandt sted 3.–11. september 1649, i starten af den Cromwellianske erobring af Irland. Kystbyen Drogheda blev holdt af den irske katolske konfederation og engelske royalister under kommando af Sir Arthur Aston, da den blev belejret af parlamentariske styrker under Oliver Cromwell. Efter at Aston afslog en invitation til at overgive sig, blev byen stormet, og mange i garnisonen blev henrettet, herunder et ukendt, men "betydeligt antal" civile. Udfaldet af belejringen og i hvilken grad civile blev målrettet, er et væsentligt emne til debat blandt historikere.
