Operation Market Garden var en allieret offensiv rettet mod Nazi-Tyskland i september 1944, mod slutningen af Anden Verdenskrig. Operationen, præget af en omfattende indsættelse af faldskærmstropper for at erobre strategiske broer på nederlandsk område, endte i sidste ende som en fiasko, da den afgørende bro ved Arnhem ikke kunne bevares.
Den britiske feltmarskal Bernard Montgomery argumenterede under fremrykningen fra Normandiet, hvor de allierede var landet på D-Dag i det besatte Frankrig, for at hele den tyske front, som han allerede anså for at være besejret, skulle omfatte fra nord ved at krydse de store floder i Nederlandene. Efter noget tøven gik øverstkommanderende Eisenhower den 10. september med til denne dristige plan.
