The Diapason d'or (French for 'Golden Tuning Fork') is an award for classical music recordings. It is presented monthly by the French magazine Diapason in several categories. In addition, the music critics of Diapason and France Musique select the winners of the Diapason d'or de l'année from the monthly list of top recordings, with the awards presented at the end of November each year.
Alongside the German Record Critics' Award and the British Gramophone Award, the Diapason d'or is regarded as one of Europe's most prestigious independent awards for classical music recordings.
