Ilmārs Bricis (born 9 July 1970) is a Latvian biathlete, who has participated in six Winter Olympics from 1992 to 2010.
He is married to three-time Olympian Anžela Brice (cross-country skiing 1998, biathlon 2002 and 2006). Their eighteen-year-old daughter Anete Brice, coached by Anžela, competed in cross country skiing at the 2010 Winter Olympics.
His hobbies are music and driving.
Bricis has won bronze medals in 20 km race at the 2001 World Championship in Pokljuka and in 10 km sprint at the 2005 World Championship in Hochfilzen.
He came 5th in the 20km and sixth in the 4 x 7.5 km Relay at the 1998 Olympics in Nagano. His best performance was fourth at the 12.5km Pursuit at the 2006 Olympics in Torino.
At the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, he and luger Anna Orlova both competed in their sixth Olympic Games. They are the first Latvians to do so, after eight-time Olympian shooter Afanasijs Kuzmins at the Summer Olympics.
Bricis is the 4th biathlete to compete at six Winter Olympics, after Austrian Alfred Eder, Briton Michael Dixon and Russian Sergei Tchepikov, with Norwegian Ole Einar Bjørndalen following in 2014.
