Largo Town Center is a Washington Metro station in Prince George's County, Maryland on the Blue Line, and is currently the eastern terminus of the Blue Line. Serving the town of Largo, and The Boulevard at the Capital Centre, a nearby shopping center, the station began service on December 18, 2004. It is the first station in Prince George's County outside the Capital Beltway, and is located about a mile from FedExField, the home of the Washington Redskins. Largo Town Center is also a major commuter station, with two parking garages, containing a total of 2,200 spaces, connected by a bridge at the top level.

Largo Town Center, along with Morgan Boulevard, marks the first extension of Metro beyond the official original adopted regional system. However, in a 1970 WMATA regional phase map, a station called "Largo" was part of the system^{[citation needed]}.
