Petrykivka Raion (Ukrainian: Петриківський район) was a raion (district) of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, southeastern-central Ukraine. Its administrative center was the urban-type settlement of Petrykivka. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast to seven. The area of Petrykivka Raion was merged into Dnipro Raion.[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 24,479 (2020 est.)[3].

The raion contains Dniprovsko-Orilskyi Nature Reserve.

At the time of disestablishment, the raion consisted of one hromada,[4] Petrykivka settlement hromada with the administration in Petrykivka.
