Dykanka Raion (Ukrainian: Диканський район; translit.: Dykans'kyi Raion) was a raion (district) in Poltava Oblast in central Ukraine. The raion's administrative center was the urban-type settlement of Dykanka. The raion was abolished and its territory was merged into Poltava Raion[1] on 18 July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Poltava Oblast to four.[2][3] The last estimate of the raion population was 18,118 (2020 est.)[4]
