Latvian Wikipedia Marathon ({{lang-lv|Latvijas Vikipēdijas maratons}}) was a project that brought together the Latvian Wikipedia community with several private partners in joint effort with the aim of expanding the Latvian Wikipedia to activate the usability of the Latvian language in the learning process, cognition and research work. The marathon opened on 11 March 2015. The project aimed to expand the Latvian Wikipedia to 100 thousand articles by the centenary of Latvian independence (18 November 2018).

The marathon was an initiative of Norvik Banka, and partners - the University of Latvia, the State Language Centre, Latvian Wikipedia editors, Radio 5, the digital language services company Tilde, information campaign supported by Delfi.lv, the best prize for writers provided by Samsung. In March 2015 Latvian Wikipedia contained around 59 thousand articles. For comparison, the Lithuanian Wikipedia has about 170 thousand and the Estonian Wikipedia 131 thousand.

Within the period from March to August 2015 an organized campaign took place calling on broader Latvian society to engage in the expansion of Wikipedia.
