Pampanga's 1st congressional district is one of the four congressional districts of the Philippines in the province of Pampanga.

It is currently represented in the 20th Congress by Carmelo Lazatin Jr. of the Partido Federal ng Pilipinas and Kambilan.[4][5]

Prior to its second dissolution in 1972, the district encompassed the western Pampanga municipalities of Angeles (which became a city in 1964), Bacolor, Floridablanca, Guagua, Lubao, Macabebe, Masantol, Porac, Santa Rita, and Sexmoan.[6] Following the restoration of the Congress in 1987, it was redefined to encompass Angeles and neighboring northern Pampanga municipalities of Mabalacat and Magalang, a configuration that remains in effect to date.[7][8]
