Oluf Ring (born 24 December 1884 in Jelling, died 26 April 1946 in Skårup, Funen) was a Danish composer.

Oluf Ring worked as a seminary teacher and wrote a number of melodies that have become popular. He popularised folk music at the time of World War I together with Thomas Laub, Thorvald Aagaard and Carl Nielsen. This resulted in the publication of Folkehøjskolen's Melodibog in 1922.
