Taradeau (French pronunciation: [taʁado]; Occitan: Taradèu) is a commune in the Var department in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region in Southeastern France. As of 2023, the population of the commune was 1,945.

Ruins of an oppidum were discovered in 1969 in the commune, dating back to the 1st century. The site marks a Celto-Ligurian settlement of the Verucini tribe. In the 12th century, the French built a watch tower above the village named the Tour du Taradel, which is now open to visitors.

The main religion in Taradeau is Roman Catholic.

Taradeau is just north of the larger town of Vidauban. Taradeau has a number of small businesses. In the village there is a restaurant, grocery shop, bakery, as well as tobacconist.

The village hosts a yearly circus around August time. Every year Taradeau also has a fireworks display on the local football field, celebrating the liberation of France.
