Tennessee's 33rd Senate district is one of 33 districts in the Tennessee Senate. It has been represented by Democrat London Lamar since 2022, following her appointment by the Shelby County Commission after Katrina Robinson was expelled by the Senate.

The district is located almost entirely within Tennessee's 9th congressional district, with a very small section extending into the 8th district.
