Brianda Pereira (c. 1550 — c. 1620) was an Azorean known for her role during the Battle of Salga, during the Portuguese resistance against the Spanish occupation in the archipelago, during the reign of Philip II of Spain. The name of Brianda Pereira was mythologized by the Romantic movement at the end of the 19th century, who was elevated to the status of heroine by the Estado Novo regime, affirming Portuguese nationalism. She became a popular figure and used as a protagonist of various theatre folk plays, songs and dances/marches during Carnaval, in addition to being adopted as a matron of various institutions.
