19367 Pink Floyd is a minor planet that has been named in honor of the English musical group Pink Floyd. The asteroid is in a 3.82-year elliptical orbit around the sun.

There is little information on the physical properties of 19367 Pink Floyd. Its diameter remains uncertain; range of 3 to 6 km is probable.

19367 Pink Floyd's maximum brightness is estimated to be 1/14958 of the brightness of the faintest objects that can be seen with the human eye.
