The Colombo Cabinet was the 26th cabinet of the Italian Republic. It held office from 6 August 1970 to 18 February 1972, for a total of 561 days (1 year, 6 months and 12 days).

Colombo resigned on 15 January 1972, following the withdrawal of support from the PRI, which was contrary to the government's economic policy.
