Madliena (formerly spelt Madalena, Maltese: Il-Madliena) is an area in Swieqi, Malta, formerly part of the adjacent town of Għargħur. It takes its name from a chapel dedicated to St. Mary Magdalene, which was built in the area in 1490. Madliena was known as Ħal Samudi in Medieval times and is listed as such together with Għargħur in documents of the time.
While up to the 1960s it was mainly a rural area home to a number of farms, nowadays Madliena is a residential area, and it is home to many villas, bungalows, luxury apartments and maisonettes.
