The 2019 Indian Wells Open (also known as the 2019 BNP Paribas Open for sponsorship reasons) was a professional tennis tournament played at Indian Wells, California in March 2019. It was the 46th edition of the men's event and 31st of the women's event, and was classified as an ATP Tour Masters 1000 event on the 2019 ATP Tour and a Premier Mandatory event on the 2019 WTA Tour. Both the men's and the women's events took place at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden in Indian Wells, California, from March 4 through March 17, 2019, on outdoor hard courts.

All top 75 ranked WTA and ATP Tour singles players were included in the initial entry list, but two-time champion Maria Sharapova announced her withdrawal three weeks before the tournament due to a right shoulder injury.

Juan Martín del Potro and Naomi Osaka were the defending champions in the men's and women's draw respectively. Del Potro withdrew before the tournament began due to a knee injury. Osaka lost in the fourth round to Belinda Bencic.
