Five Days in July is a 1993 album by Blue Rodeo.

Generally considered by fans and Canadian music critics to be the band's best album, it was recorded on a farm in Southern Ontario in July of 1992. Guest musicians on the album include Sarah McLachlan, Colin Linden and Anne Bourne.

This album is supposed to be a tribute to the Harvest-era Neil Young sound. This is especially evident on the song "5 Days in May."

"5 Days in May", "Hasn't Hit Me Yet" and "Bad Timing" were notable hit singles for the band.
