TrackMania is a series of arcade racing games for Windows and Nintendo DS, which include stunting with cars, track-building, elements from puzzle games, as well as elements testing the players' dexterity. It was developed by the French team Nadeo for the PC. Instead of following the usual trend of choosing a set car and track for playing in the game, the TrackMania games allow the player to create their own tracks using a "Block" process in the spirit of the 1985 game Racing Destruction Set and the 1990 Brøderbund release, Stunts.

In contrast with most other racing games, the TrackMania series lets the player race a track as many times as they want, until time runs out. They can choose to respawn at any time possible, due to landing upside down, going off the track or because the start did not go optimally. Although in multiplayer games multiple cars race on the same track, they cannot actually collide or otherwise influence each other.

There are currently four basic games in the series. After receiving freely available patch along with extra content a game becomes available with a word added to the title. These newer versions are also offered in stores. A fifth game has been created for the Nintendo DS.

- TrackMania, the original, often referred to as TMO
- TrackMania Original
- TrackMania Sunrise, the second game, often TMS
- TrackMania Sunrise eXtreme, often TMSX
- TrackMania Nations, the freeware game of the series, often TMN
- TrackMania Nations Forever, also the freeware game of series, often TMNF
- TrackMania United, could be considered a compilation of all previous games, often TMU
- TrackMania United Forever, often TMUF
- TrackMania DS, a version for the Nintendo DS

There is also a small, promotional online game using Macromedia Flash, called Mini TrackMania.

Because of the success of the TrackMania series, Guinness World Records awarded the games six world records in Guinness World Records: Gamer's Edition 2008. These records include "Biggest Online Race", "Most Popular Online Racing Sim" and "Largest Content Base of Any Racing Game", with hundreds of thousands of user created tracks and hundreds of unique cars available for download.
