Veronica Maggio (born 1981 in Uppsala) is a Swedish singer-songwriter of Swedish and Italian descent, widely regarded as one of the most significant pop artists in Sweden over the past two decades.

Beyond music, she co-wrote and starred in the 2025 film 7 steg, which received eight Guldbagge nominations.
