Ella in Rome: The Birthday Concert från 1988 är ett livealbum av Ella Fitzgerald[1]. Inspelningarna gjordes 1958 men upptäcktes i Verves kassavalv först trettio år senare. Ingen kände då till att inspelningarna fanns men de gavs nu omedelbart ut på cd. Albumet gick direkt in på första plats på Billboards jazzlista.

De inspelade konserterna ägde rum i Rom på Fitzgeralds 41-årsdag (som man vid den här tiden trodde var hennes 40-årsdag) och anses vara en av hennes bästa liveinspelningar vid sidan av den mer berömda konserten i Berlin två år senare (Ella in Berlin: Mack the Knife).
