Lamara Chkonia (Georgian: ლამარა ჭყონია, born December 27, 1930) is a prominent Georgian soprano. Belonging to a circle of opera singers who made significant contributions to the vocal culture of Georgia and the former Soviet Union, Lamara was one of the few women to break through the Iron Curtain and present her talent to the world's cultural community.

In 1976 she was awarded People's Artist of USSR, the highest artistic honor of the time. Later she became a deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the USSR (1979--1984).
