The 2015–16 season was Udinese Calcio's 36th season in Serie A and their 21st consecutive season in the top-flight. Having missed out on European football for the second consecutive season, Udinese competed only in Serie A and in the Coppa Italia. Udinese finished 17th in the league following a poor season, and were eliminated in the round of 16 in the Coppa Italia.

Following the end of the season club and Italian football legend Antonio Di Natale retired.
