The 1994 Brandenburg state election was held on 11 September 1994 to elect the members of the 2nd Landtag of Brandenburg. The incumbent government was a traffic light coalition of the Social Democratic Party (SPD), Free Democratic Party (FDP) and The Greens, led by Minister-President Manfred Stolpe. The SPD achieved a 16% swing in its favour and won an absolute majority with 54% of the vote, while both of its coalition partners lost their seats. The Christian Democratic Union (CDU) suffered a major swing against it, falling to 18.7%. The Party of Democratic Socialism (PDS) also finished on 18.7%, just 62 votes behind the CDU. Minister-President Stolpe continued in office.

This election marked the first and last time that a party gained an absolute majority in Brandenburg. In addition, this was also the first and last time that a party won all single-member constituencies (44).
