The Frontist Party (French: Parti frontiste, PF) was a political party in France founded in 1936 by Gaston Bergery and Georges Izard. The PF participated in the Popular Front. Gaston Bergery, a former member of the left wing of the Radical-Socialist Party, where he was known as a "Radical-Bolshevik" for his left-wing leanings and staunch opposition to fascism. Ironically, Bergery evolved to become a member of the French far-right.

The PF remained a very small and very weak party throughout its short existence. Its two deputies in the 1936-1940 legislature sat in the Independent Left group.
