The 2015–16 season was Associazione Calcio ChievoVerona's 9th consecutive season in Serie A. The club competed in Serie A, finishing 9th, and in the Coppa Italia, where Chievo was eliminated in the third round by Salernitana (0-1 after extra time).
ChievoVerona made a good start to the season, taking 10 points from the first five games, and ultimately ended up fluctuating in mid-table throughout most of the season. The 9th-place finish was the club's best placement since 2006 and would be their best result in the club's 11-year stay in Serie A between 2008 and 2019.
Valter Birsa, whose loan became permanent, and Simone Pepe were amongst the club's signings before the start of the year.
