The 2015 Omloop van het Hageland was the eleventh running of the women's Omloop van het Hageland, a women's bicycle race in Belgium. It was held on 8 March 2015, over a distance of 120.1 kilometres (74.6 miles) around Tielt-Winge. It was rated by the UCI as a 1.2 category race. The race was won by Belgian rider Jolien D'Hoore of the Wiggle–Honda, who won the sprint from a front group of eleven riders.
Several UCI Women's Teams like Velocio–SRAM, Orica–AIS and Rabo–Liv dit not participate because they rode the 2015 Strade Bianche Women in Italy the day before. A main favorite Ellen van Dijk (Boels–Dolmans) could not start due to a back injury. Because the team did not have reserves because they also competed in Italy, Lariss Havik competed as a guest rider for the team so the team had the least amount of riders to start.
