The 2015 Cantabrian regional election was held on Sunday, 24 May 2015, to elect the 9th Parliament of the Autonomous Community of Cantabria. All 35 seats in the Parliament were up for election. The election was held simultaneously with regional elections in 12 other autonomous communities and local elections all throughout Spain.

The Parliament of Cantabria was the devolved, unicameral legislature of the autonomous community of Cantabria, having legislative power in regional matters as defined by the Spanish Constitution and the Cantabrian Statute of Autonomy, as well as the ability to grant or revoke confidence from a President of the Autonomous Community. Voting for the Parliament was on the basis of universal suffrage, with all nationals over eighteen, registered in Cantabria and in full enjoyment of all political rights entitled to vote. Additionally, Cantabrians abroad were required to apply for voting before being permitted to vote, a system known as "begged" or expat vote (Spanish: Voto rogado).
