Anglia Tonight is the local news programme for the Anglia Television at 6pm every weeknight.

Since 1990, there have been two editions: Anglia East (Norfolk, Suffolk & Essex) and Anglia West (Cambridgeshire, Northamptonshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire and Buckinghamshire), both broadcast from Norwich (pre-dating current practice in other ITV regions by 17 years). At the weekend, the same programme covers both areas.

Anglia News replaced Anglia Television's About Anglia in 1992. The 6pm programme changed title to "Anglia Tonight" in 2004, although it was called "Anglia News Tonight" for a short time beforehand.
