Arad (Arabic: عراد‎) is a town in Bahrain, located on Muharraq Island. It lies east of Muharraq City and northwest of Hidd. It was originally a small farming village inhabited by Baharna Shia. It later expanded to include new middle-class housing, which brought with it a large Sunni population also.

The Arad Fort, the Al Muharraq Stadium, and the headquarters of the Islamic Society (Bahrain) are located in the town.

The town is administered under the Muharraq Governorate.
