Bluestar is a bus company operating in central Hampshire, England. It is based in Eastleigh and was started by Southern Vectis as Solent Blue Line in 1987. It is now owned by Go-Ahead Group.

The name Bluestar was originally the brand for the premier Solent Blue Line services, but with the withdrawal of the Red Rocket services on February 25 2008, all services now operate under the name. Some local routes run under the Baby Bluestar name. The New Forest Tour and the Solent Shuttle run under thier own sub-brands.
