The 2015 Philadelphia Cycling Classic, known as The Parx Casino Philly Cycling Classic for sponsorship purposes, was the sixth round of the 2015 UCI Women's Road World Cup. It was held on June 7, 2015, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. The event had last appeared in the Women's Road World Cup in 2001, as the Liberty Classic.

On a six-lap course which climbed the Manayunk Wall – an 800-metre (2,600 ft) long climb with an average gradient of 8 percent – at the end of each lap, Jasmin Glaesser (Optum–KBS) established an early breakaway, leading for two laps before being caught by the peloton. Her breakaway earned her sufficient "Queen of the Mountain" points for her to win that title. Further attacks were made, but none were successful. On the final ascent of Manayunk Wall, Lizzie Armitstead (Boels–Dolmans) won in a sprint, beating Elisa Longo Borghini (Wiggle–Honda) and Alena Amialiusik (Velocio–SRAM).
