Shpola Raion (Ukrainian: Шполянський район) was a raion (district) of Cherkasy Oblast, central Ukraine. Its administrative centre was located at the town of Shpola. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Cherkasy Oblast to four. The area of Shpola Raion was merged into Zvenyhorodka Raion.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 41,211 (2020 est.)[3]

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of three hromadas:[4]
