The Archdiocese of Ravenna-Cervia (Latin: Archidioecesis Ravennatensis-Cerviensis) is an archdiocese of the Catholic Church. It is a metropolitan see of the Latin Church, located in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.

The cathedral of the archdiocese is the Cathedral Basilica of the Resurrection of Our Lord in Ravenna. There is a co-cathedral in Cervia, the Concattedrale di Santa Maria Assunta ('cocathedral of the Assumption of Santa Maria'), which had formerly been the Cervia Cathedral.

Following the appointment by Pope Benedict XVI and in succession to Giuseppe Verucchi, Lorenzo Ghizzoni has been the metropolitan archbishop of the archdiocese since 17 November 2012.
