Persatuan Sepakbola Indonesia Surakarta (lit.'Indonesian Football Association of Surakarta'), commonly known as Persis Solo, is an Indonesian football club based in the Central Java city of Surakarta. Founded on 8 November 1923 as Vorstenlandschen Voetbal Bond (English: Royal Football Union; abbreviated as VVB), it was officially renamed to its current brand in 1935.

Persis returned to top-flight football after a decade in 2022 following its success in winning the 2021 Liga 2 title. The club plays its Super League home games at Manahan Stadium, which has a capacity of 20,000 spectators. The 2021 revival of the club was driven by its new, politically connected owners – Kaesang Pangarep, the youngest son of President Joko Widodo who acts as the club's chairman, and State-Owned Enterprises Minister Erick Thohir.
