The 2015 Aegon Championships, also known traditionally as the Queen's Club Championships,{{cite web|url=http://www.aegontennis.co.uk/watch/aegon-championships|title=Aegon Championships|publisher=Aegon Tennis|access-date=14 February 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150214143056/http://www.aegontennis.co.uk/watch/aegon-championships|archive-date=14 February 2015|url-status=dead|df=dmy-all}} was a men's tennis tournament played on outdoor grass courts. It was the 113th edition of those championships and was part of the ATP World Tour 500 series of the 2015 ATP World Tour, upgraded from a 250 series event for the first time. It took place at the Queen's Club in London, United Kingdom between 15 June and 21 June 2015.{{cite web|url= http://www.queensclub.co.uk/news_and_events/major_tournaments/AEGON_championships|title= Aegon Championships 2015|publisher=The Queen's Club|access-date=14 February 2015}}
Despite the elevated status of the event from an ATP 250 to an ATP 500 series event, the draw featured one round less for the first time in its history, meaning reduced numbers of players in the draw. However, there were no byes into the second round for any of the higher-ranked players, as there were previously.
First-seeded Andy Murray won the singles title.
