Spartakiad of Peoples of the USSR ({{lang-ru|Спартакиада народов СССР}}, Spartakiada narodov SSSR^[1]) were mass multi-event competitions in the Soviet Union in 1956–1991, descendants of the 1928 All-Union Spartakiad that took place in Moscow. The competitions were conducted between constituent republics of the Soviet Union. The competitions also were organized as winter and summer. There were 10 summer Spartakiads and 7 winter Spartakiads.

Background

In 1952 the Soviet Union decided to join the Olympic movement, and international Spartakiads ceased. However the term contrinued to exist for internal sports events in the Soviet Union of different levels, from local up to the Spartakiad of the Peoples of the USSR. The latter event was held twice in four years: Winter Spartakiad and Summer Spartakiad.

The first Soviet Spartakiad was held in 1956.
