The Football League play-offs for the 2015–16 season (referred to as the Sky Bet Play-Offs for sponsorship reasons) were held in May 2016 with all finals being staged at Wembley Stadium in London.

The play-offs begin at the semi-final stage with all semi-finals being played over two legs, contested by the teams who finished in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th place in the Football League Championship and League One and the 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th-placed teams in the League Two table.

The Football League play-offs have been held every year since 1987.

They take place for each division following the conclusion of the regular season and are contested by the four clubs finishing below the automatic promotion places.

Sheffield Wednesday won 3–1 on aggregate.
