35 Cygni is a spectroscopic binary star in the constellation Cygnus. Its apparent magnitude is 5.18. Located around {{convert|1,000|pc|ly}} distant, its primary is a yellow supergiant of spectral type F6Ib, a massive star that has used up its core hydrogen and is now fusing heavier elements.
Yellow supergiants are usually variable, often Classical Cepheid variables, but 35 Cyg is notable for having an especially constant brightness.{{cite journal|bibcode=2000IBVS.4947....1A|title=On the Variability of A6 to F9 Supergiants|journal=Information Bulletin on Variable Stars|volume=4947|pages=1|last1=Adelman|first1=S.

35 Cyg is a single-lined spectroscopic binary with a period of 2,440 days (over 6 years).{{cite journal|bibcode=2004A&A...424..727P|arxiv=astro-ph/0406573|title=SB9: The ninth catalogue of spectroscopic binary orbits|journal=Astronomy and Astrophysics|volume=424|issue=2|pages=727–732|last1=Pourbaix|first1=D.|last2=Tokovinin|first2=A.
