Saint-Denis-de-Brompton is a municipality in the Canadian province of Quebec, part of the Regional County Municipality of Le Val-Saint-François, within the larger administrative region of Estrie. It is located approximately 145 kilometres east of Montreal. The municipality is located in a densely wooded area on the shores of Lake Brompton.

The region was still little frequented at the beginning of the 19th century, when the township of Brompton was proclaimed in 1801 on the lands of the county of Buckinghamshire. The parish of Saint-Denis-de-Brompton was founded in this township in 1922. Its name pays homage to Father Joseph-Denis Bellemare, parish priest of Saint-François-Xavier-de-Brompton. On March 6, 1935, the parish municipality of Saint-Denis-de-Brompton was created by detachment of the municipalities of Brompton, Orford, Saint-François-Xavier-de-Brompton and Saint-Élie-d'Orford. The parish was canonically erected in 1940.

On November 17, 2012, Saint-Denis-de-Brompton changed status from parish municipality to municipality. Nowadays, Saint-Denis-de-Brompton is an important holiday resort in the region, in particular because of the lakes found there.

In 2021, following a referendum, the city put forward a project to install water and sewers in the Petit lac Brompton and Lac Desmarais sectors. This project includes, among other things, a loan of $31M.
