Balintawak station is an elevated Light Rail Transit (LRT) station located on the LRT Line 1 (LRT-1) system located along EDSA at the boundary of barangays Balingasa, Unang Sigaw, and Apolonio Samson in Quezon City, Philippines. It opened on March 22, 2010 as part of the LRT-1 North Extension Project.^[1] The station serves passengers going to and from the northern parts of Luzon using the North Luzon Expressway.

Balintawak is one of two LRT-1 stations serving Quezon City, with the other being Fernando Poe Jr. It is the second station for trains headed to Dr. Santos and the twenty-fourth station for trains headed to Fernando Poe Jr.

The station is situated in front of the Balintawak Market, near the Quezon City–Caloocan boundary and the Balintawak Cloverleaf.

Balintawak station was constructed as part of the Line 1 North Extension Project, a 5.4-kilometer (3.4 mi) extension of LRT-1 to the North Avenue station of MRT Line 3 as part of the MRT-LRT closing the loop project to integrate the operations of the LRT-1 and MRT-3. However, the integration of MRT-3 and LRT-1 operations did not happen, but this will change when the North Triangle Common Station is set to partially open in 2024. Construction of the North Extension started in July 2008 and was completed in 2010. Balintawak station was opened on March 22, 2010.^[1] At that time, it was the temporary northern terminus of the line until the completion of Roosevelt station (now Fernando Poe Jr. station) in October 2010. It regained such status once again during the temporary closure of the station from September 2020 to December 2022 due to the construction of the North Triangle Common Station.^[2]

There are several city buses and jeepneys plying EDSA, as well as A. Bonifacio Avenue below the Balintawak Interchange. A UV Express terminal is also found at Ayala Malls Cloverleaf. The station serves as an interchange with the EDSA Carousel. The EDSA Carousel is accessible via the emergency exits of the station.^{[citation needed]}

The station is close to Balintawak Market and adjacent to Puregold Balintawak. An access road to Ayala Land's Cloverleaf estate is built right beside the station. Accessing Ayala Malls Cloverleaf from the station requires riding the shuttle service stationed near the southbound entrance.^{[citation needed]}
