The 2015 European Darts Grand Prix was the ninth of nine European Tour events on the 2015 PDC Pro Tour. The tournament took place in Sindelfingen between 16–18 October. It featured a field of 48 players and £115,000 in prize money, with £25,000 going to the winner.

Mervyn King was the defending champion, but he lost in the third round to Mensur Suljović. Kim Huybrechts defeated Peter Wright 6–5 in the final, coming back from 5–2 down in the process to win his second European title.

The prize fund was increased to £115,000 after being £100,000 for the previous two years.
