The Sweet Solera Stakes is a Group 3 flat horse race in Great Britain open to two-year-old fillies. It is run on the July Course at Newmarket over a distance of 7 furlongs (1,408 metres), and it is scheduled to take place each year in August.

The event is named after Sweet Solera, the winner of the 1000 Guineas and Epsom Oaks in 1961. For a period it was classed at Listed level, and it was promoted to Group 3 status in 2004.

The leading horses from the Sweet Solera Stakes often go on to compete in the May Hill Stakes and the Fillies' Mile.
