The Ultimate Yes: 35th Anniversary Collection is a triple compilation album by progressive rock band Yes and was released in 2003 in the United Kingdom and in early 2004 in the United States and covers the length and breadth of the band's thirty-five-year career.

Released on Warner Music in the UK as a double CD, the US edition - on Rhino Records - included a bonus disc of acoustic recordings of old and new material recorded in October 2003. Both editions also feature a different tracklisting and running order.

The Ultimate Yes: 35th Anniversary Collection unsuspectingly entered the UK charts at #10 upon its mid-2003 release, giving Yes their highest charting album there since 1991. In the US, where more compilations had seen release over the years, the delayed appearance of the set did little to improve its commercial appeal, only reaching #131 there.

With a range of material from 1969's Yes to 2001's Magnification - and beyond - The Ultimate Yes: 35th Anniversary Collection is generally considered to supplant earlier non-box set retrospectives such as Classic Yes and Yesstory.
