Hédé-Bazouges (French pronunciation: [ede bazuʒ]; Breton: Hazhoù-Bazeleg; Gallo: Hédoe) is a commune in the Ille-et-Vilaine department in Brittany in northwestern France.
The commune was created in 1974 by the merger of three former communes: Hédé, Bazouges-sous-Hédé and Saint-Symphorien. On 1 January 2008, the village of Saint-Symphorien was separated from the commune, and given the status of commune in its own right. Prior to 22 March 2011, the commune was called Hédé.
It is twinned with the village of Wortham in Suffolk, England.
Inhabitants of Hédé-Bazouges are called Hédéens in French.
