Vesyoloye (Russian: Весёлое, IPA: [vʲɪˈsʲɵləɪ]) is a rural locality (a selo) in Nizhneshilovsky Rural Okrug under the administrative jurisdiction of Adlersky City District of the City of Sochi.

[citation needed] The locality's name in Russian means "cheerful" and was given due to its beautiful and "cheerful-looking" environs.

Vesyoloye is notable for its Research Institute of Medical Primatology, established in 1927.

In 2008, an ethnographic museum opened in Vesyoloye, containing exhibits of archaic materials which various ethnic groups (Russians, Armenians, Adyghe, Georgians) in the region used.
