The Mall of America light rail station is on the Hiawatha Line in the Twin Cities region of U.S. state of Minnesota. It services the Mall of America, in the suburb of Bloomington, Minnesota. It is the southern terminus of the line.

It has been deliberately made difficult for drivers to park at the mall and then ride the train, so many passengers drive to the nearby 28th Avenue station, which has a 600-space Park and Ride lot, however, a Cedar Grove Park & Ride station will be built in the next few years on the new Cedar BRT Line.
