El teatro Principal de Puerto Real es un teatro situado en el municipio de Puerto Real (provincia de Cádiz, en Andalucía). Ocupa un bello edificio del siglo XIX cuya estética corresponde a los teatros italianos decimonónicos de fines de siglo. Actualmente es el segundo teatro más antiguo de Andalucía en funcionamiento con un aforo de 568 espectadores, constituyendo uno de los centros culturales más importantes de la población y lugar donde se realizan todo tipo de actos culturales.
En 1856 comenzaron las obras del nuevo Teatro de Puerto Real, promovidas por Antonio Matalobos, empresario de El Puerto de Santa María, y proyectadas por el arquitecto neoclásico gaditano Manuel García del Álamo. Con posterioridad, en 1857, la Academia de Bellas Artes aprobó el citado proyecto. Con un aforo de 650 espectadores, el teatro se inauguró en 1859.
Su nombre fue cambiado según el signo de los tiempos: teatro de Isabel II, teatro del Príncipe Alfonso y teatro de La Libertad, para acabar recibiendo la actual denominación de teatro Principal, pasando en 1984 a propiedad municipal.
