Cecilia Wigström, born 1971, is a Swedish Liberal People's Party politician. She has been a member of the Riksdag since 2002. Wigström was re-elected in October 2006, attracting 6,3% of the People's Party's votes in Göteborg. Wigström, a deeply Christian widow, is generally perceived to have very high moral standards.

She has often highlighted the plight of Dawit Isaak, a journalist imprisoned by the Eritrean government without trial, after demanding democratic reforms.

In 2008, Wigström was one of the strong voices supporting the controversial legislative change regulating the National Defence Radio Establishment (FRA).
