Hadiach Raion (Ukrainian: Гадяцький район; translit.: Hadyats'kyi Raion) was a raion (district) in Poltava Oblast in central Ukraine. The raion's administrative center was the city of Hadiach, which was incorporated separately as a city of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion. The raion was abolished on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Poltava Oblast to four. The area of Hadiach Raion was merged into Poltava Raion.^[1][2] The last estimate of the raion population was 27,508 (2020 est.)^[3]

Important rivers within the Hadyatskyi Raion included the Psel and the Khorol.
