"Almost Heaven" is the tenth regular studio album by European-American pop group The Kelly Family. Based on concept by Dan Kelly, it was co-produced by Kathy and Paddy Kelly and released in 1996 (see 1996 in music) throughout most of Europe.

Following the major success of previous albums "Over the Hump" and "Christmas for All" and the number-one single "I Can't Help Myself," the album debuted number-one in Austria, Germany and Switzerland. It also entered the top 5 in the Netherlands and Norway and made it to the top 20 in Belgium. "Almost Heaven" eventually sold more than 3 million domestically, making it the band's second biggest-selling release to date.
