Kirkfield Park is a provincial electoral division in the Canadian province of Manitoba. It was created by redistribution in 1979, and has formally existed since the provincial election of 1981.^[1] The riding is located in the westernmost tip of the City of Winnipeg.

Kirkfield Park is bordered to the east by St. James, to the south by Charleswood, to the north by Assiniboia, and to the west by Morris. The St Charles and Glendale Country Clubs are in this riding, as are the Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens and Assumption Cemetery.

The riding's population in 1996 was 20,236. In 1999, the average family income was $63,038, and the unemployment rate was 5.80%. Almost 13% of the riding's population are immigrants, including 6% German and 5% Ukrainian. Over twenty per cent of the riding's residents are over 65 years of age.

The service sector accounts for 15% of Kirkfield Park's industry, followed by 13% in retail trade.
