The Sexenio Democrático or Sexenio Revolucionario ("six democratic/revolutionary years") is a period of six years between 1868 and 1874 in the history of Spain.

The Sexenio Democrático starts on 30 September 1868 with the overthrow of Queen Isabella II of Spain after the Glorious Revolution, and ends on 29 December 1874 with the Bourbon Restoration, when Isabella's son Alfonso XII became King after a coup d'état by Arsenio Martínez-Campos.
