The 1975 Grand National was the 129th renewal of the world-famous Grand National horse race that took place at Aintree near Liverpool, England, on 5 April 1975.

The race was won by 13/2 second-favourite L'Escargot, ridden by Tommy Carberry, in a time of nine minutes and 31.1 seconds and by a distance of 15 lengths over 7/2 favourite Red Rum, who was thus denied a third consecutive win.
