Felix Healy (born 27 September 1955 as Patrick Joseph Healy) is a Northern Irish former international footballer and singer who played for Coleraine and then became a football manager. He has also worked as a media pundit.

Starting his career at Sligo Rovers, he signed with Distillery in 1976. In 1978, he transferred to Finn Harps, before moving to England to play for Port Vale later that year. Two years later, he returned to his homeland to play for Coleraine. After seven years with the club, he moved on to Derry City. In 1993, he returned to Coleraine as player-manager before leaving his post and ending his playing career in 1994. He then spent four years in charge at Derry City. In 1982, he won four caps for Northern Ireland. Healy settled into a quiet retirement, becoming a popular local musician around Derry City and Inishowen.
