Zaporizhian March (Ukrainian: Запорозький марш, romanized: Zaporoz'kyi marsh or Запорізький марш, Zaporiz'kyi marsh) is an expressive Ukrainian folk musical composition that was preserved and rearranged by bandurist Yevhen Adamtsevych.

The march became more famous after its arrangement by Viktor Hutsal who merged its tune with the folk song about Doroshenko and Sahaidachny (Hey, on the hilltop the reapers reap).

In modern Ukraine the piece serves as one of the official marches of the Armed Forces.
