Epameinondas Deligeorgis was a Greek lawyer, reporter and politician from Mesolonghi (1829 - 1879).

Deligeorgis studied law at Athens University and entered politics in 1854. He was not a proponent of the Great Idea and thought that a better solution to the Eastern Question would be to improve the condition of the Macedonian, Epirote, Thracian and Asia Minor Greeks within a more liberalised Ottoman Empire.

Deligeorgis was the Prime Minister who, on October 10, 1862, declared the abolition of the Bavarian monarchy under King Otto.
