The 2015 Settimana Internazionale di Coppi e Bartali was the 30th edition of the Settimana Internazionale di Coppi e Bartali cycling stage race. It started on 26 March in Gatteo and ended on 29 March in Roccapelago.[1] The race consisted of four stages. As in the 2014 edition, the first stage was divided into two half-stages, with the second half of the first stage being a team time trial.

The race was won by South African rider Louis Meintjes (MTN–Qhubeka), who claimed the leader's jersey with his win on the final stage. Meintjes beat Ben Swift (Team Sky) in the general classification by two seconds. The podium was completed by Croatian rider Matija Kvasina, of Team Felbermayr–Simplon Wels.[2] Swift won the second stage and the points classification, Slovenian rider Primož Roglič of Adria Mobil won the mountains classification and Unieuro–Wilier's Simone Petilli from Italy, finished first in the young rider classification for the second year in a row.[3] The team classification was won by Team Sky.[3]
