Fanfare is a compilation album by Scottish punk and new wave band Skids, released in 1982 via Virgin Records shortly after the group dissolved. John Peel wrote the album's liner notes.

Despite being a compilation, it doesn't contain any tracks from the band's fourth and final album Joy.

Critical reception

Trouser Press called Fanfare "an excellent compilation of singles and album tracks that serves as the perfect introduction to the Skids' magic."
