A spark plug wherein the occurrence of pre-ignition and misfires in the spark plug are suppressed. The spark plug includes a cover portion, that covers a front end portion of a center electrode and a facing portion of a ground electrode from a front end side of the spark plug to form a pre-chamber space. The cover portion has injection holes that are through-holes. A metal shell volume A (mm3) of a portion of the metal shell on the front side with respect to a rear end of the pre-chamber space and a thermal conductivity B (W/mK) of the metal shell at the normal temperature satisfy a formula (1): 3.6
