The Mishings are an ethnic group in the districts of North Lakhimpur, Sonitput, Dhemaji, Dibrugarh, Sibsagar, Jorhat, Golaghat, Tinsukia of Assam. A few live in Pasighat of Arunachal Pradesh. They were earlier called Miris, a term that should not be used now.

The Mishings are ethnically close to the Adis and the Nishis of Arunachal Pradesh. They first entered the Assam plains in the 13th century, and the migration continued for many centuries after that.

Their chief festival is the Ali-Aye-Ligang, in the month of February, which celebrates the agicultural harvest.
