Road Trips Volume 1 Number 3 is a two-CD live album by the American rock band the Grateful Dead. The third in their "Road Trips" series of albums, it was released on June 9, 2008. The first disc was recorded on July 31, 1971, at the Yale Bowl in New Haven, Connecticut, and the second disc was recorded on August 23, 1971, at the Auditorium Theatre in Chicago, Illinois.

A third, "bonus" disc was included with early shipments of the album. The bonus disc contains additional concert material from the summer of 1971.

Another live Grateful Dead album recorded during this same concert tour (including more of the August 6, 1971 show of the bonus disc) is Dick's Picks Volume 35.
