Lulu (composed from 1929–1935, premièred incomplete in 1937 and complete in 1979) is an opera in three acts by the composer Alban Berg.

The German-language libretto was adapted by Berg himself from Frank Wedekind's two Lulu plays, Erdgeist (Earth Spirit, 1895) and Die Büchse der Pandora (Pandora's Box, 1904).

Berg died before completing the third and final act, and in the following decades, the opera was typically performed incomplete.

Since its publication in 1979, however, the Friedrich Cerha orchestration has become popular.
