Lucius Vipstanus Messalla was a Roman Senator who was consul ordinarius in AD 115 with Marcus Pedo Vergilianus as his colleague. Vergilianus was killed in an earthquake at the end of January and was replaced by Titus Statilius Maximus Severus Hadrianus, who completed the nundinium with Messalla.[1]

Ronald Syme states that Vipstanus Messalla was the son of Lucius Vipstanus Messalla.[2] The younger Messalla had a son named Lucius Vipstanus Poplicola Messalla.[3]
