Kalush Raion (Ukrainian: Ка́луський райо́н, romanized: Kałuśkyj rajon) is a raion (district) of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast (province). The city of Kalush is the administrative center of the raion. Population: 282,692 (2021 est.)[2].

On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast was reduced to six, and the area of Kalush Raion was significantly expanded. Two abolished raions, Dolyna and Rozhniativ Raions, as well as Bolekhiv Municipality and the city of Kalush, which was previously incorporated as a city of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion, were merged into Kalush Raion.[3][4] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 57,409 (2020 est.)[5]

The raion was formed on October 28, 1963. In 1972 part of the raion became incorporated into the Kalush municipality. The oldest settlements in the Raion are Stankiv (1158), Zaviy (13th century), Holyn' (1391), and Novytsia (14th century).

The leader of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, Stepan Bandera, was born in Staryi Uhryniv in Kalush Raion, on January 1, 1909.

Ivan Rubchak and the writer M. Kozonis were also born in Kalush Raion.
