The 2015 VLN Series was the 38th season of the VLN.

The drivers championship was won by Dirk Groneck and Tim Groneck, driving a Renault Clio for Groneck Motorsport.[1]

A fatal accident occurred during the opening round of the season, claiming the life of 49-year-old Dutch spectator Andy Gehrmann and injuring nine other spectators. The No. 23 Nissan GT-R Nismo GT3 of Jann Mardenborough unexpectedly took off at the Flugplatz, hit the barrier and bounced over the catch fencing, into the crowd.[2][3]
