Ouezzane () is a city in northern Morocco, with a population of 59,606 recorded in the 2014 Moroccan census.

The city is well known in Morocco and throughout the Islamic world as a spiritual capital, for it was home to several pillars of Sufism. It has also been known as "Dar Dmana" ("House of Safety") due to its containing the tomb of the 18th-century Idrisi Sharif.
