List of UK Country Albums Chart number ones of 2013

These are the Official Charts Company's UK Country Albums Chart number ones of 2013. The chart week runs from Friday to Thursday with the chart-date given as the following Thursday. Chart positions are based the multi-metric consumption of country music in the United Kingdom, blending traditional album sales, track equivalent albums, and streaming equivalent albums. The chart contains 20 positions.

In the iteration of the chart dated 6 January, Lady Antebellum's Need You Now held at number one, after returning to the top spot for the last four weeks of 2012. The album remained there for the first three weeks of 2013, being displaced by Glen Campbell's Ghost on the Canvas, before returning to the peak the following week and again on 7 April, spending its thirty ninth total week at number one. Campbell would also return to the top of the charts, spending three weeks there with See You There, for a total of four weeks at number one across both albums. The Mavericks also held the top spot for four weeks with their seventh studio album In Time, their fourth UK chart topper. Kacey Musgraves' debut album Same Trailer Different Park spent nine nonconsecutive weeks at number one following its release in March 2013. Lady Antebellum returned to the charts in May with the release of Golden, which held the top spot for nine consecutive weeks and then another four consecutive weeks, with these streaks being separated by Changed from Rascal Flatts. Other albums which spent multiple weeks at number one included Tim McGraw, whose Two Lanes of Freedom held the top spot for three weeks, Hoodoo from Tony Joe White, which spent four weeks at the summit, and Steve Earle's The Low Highway which peaked twice.
