Major Mark Beretta OAM (born 16 June 1966) is an Australian journalist, best known as a sports reporter on Seven Network program Sunrise, he has also been an officer in the Australian Army Reserve in public relations since 2019.

In July 2008, Beretta began presenting Seven Early News sport alongside Natalie Barr at 5.30 am, which leads into Sunrise, where he is still the sports presenter. Beretta joined with Tom Williams to host Rexona Australia's Greatest Athlete, in 2010. In 2011, he again hosted the show, this time alongside dual international Wendell Sailor.

Beretta formerly co-hosted Sunrise with current Nine News presenter Georgie Gardner from 2000 to 2002. From mid-2002 to 2004, he moved to presenting the sport on Seven News Sydney. In mid-2004, he was replaced by Sports Tonight presenter Matthew White; he subsequently moved to Sunrise where he was appointed sports presenter.

Beretta hosted the coverage of the 1998 Nagano, 2000 Sydney and 2002 Salt Lake City Olympic Games, as well as the 2002 Manchester Commonwealth Games.

In 2006, Beretta was the host of Seven Network's quiz show, The Master, which ran for only one episode on a Wednesday night at 8:30 pm before being burnt off in a Monday night timeslot during the 2006–07 non-ratings season.

From 2007 until 2014, Beretta was part of the Seven Network's V8 Supercar commentary team, working alongside Matthew White, Neil Crompton, Mark Skaife and Mark Larkham. Beretta returned to commentary in 2021 when Seven resumed coverage of the championship from previous broadcaster Network 10.

Beretta is also a fill-in presenter on The Morning Show and Weekend Sunrise, and a fill-in sports presenter on Seven News in Sydney. In 2013, Beretta hosted Seven's coverage of the Australian Open.

In 2025, Beretta scaled back his regular appearances on Sunrise, reducing his on-air presence to Monday and Friday. The adjustment was part of a broader shift in his professional commitments, allowing him to focus more on external projects, including charity work and special event coverage for the Seven Network. Despite the reduced schedule, Beretta remained an integral part of Seven’s sports broadcasting team, continuing to contribute to major events and maintaining his role as a trusted sports voice in Australian media.
