The 2015 Allsvenskan season, was the 91st edition of top tier Allsvenskan football competition since its founding in 1924 under the authority of the Swedish Football Association in Sweden; the 2015 Swedish football season. 16 teams contested the league; 14 returning from the 2014 season and two that were promoted from Superettan. The 2015 fixtures were released on 21 January 2015.[6] The season started on 4 April 2015, when BK Häcken visited newly promoted Hammarby IF at Tele2 Arena and ended on 31 October 2015.[3]

Malmö FF unsuccessfully defended its 2014 title losing to IFK Norrköping in the 2015 title final on 31 October 2015, 2–0. IFK Norrköping would win the title with a margin of three points ahead of IFK Göteborg and five points clear of third-placed team AIK. The 2015 title enabled IFK Norrköping a guaranteed place to contest in the second qualifying round the 2016–17 UEFA Champions League tournament; runners-up IFK Göteborg and third-placed AIK would compete in first qualifying round of 2016–17 UEFA Europa League. The fourth-placed team Elfsborg would play in Europa League if they or one of the top three teams won 2015–16 Svenska Cupen.
