The 2014–15 Damehåndboldligaen (known as the Boxer Dameligaen for sponsorship reasons) was the 79th season of the Damehåndboldligaen, Denmark's premier Handball league. The reigning champions were Viborg HK.
FC Midtjylland won the title, when they beat Team Esbjerg in the final.
In April Skive fH decided to withdraw their team from the league, and was therefore administratively relegated. Nykøbing Falster were relegated as well, when they finished last in the regular season.
