The Hungarian (Magyar) invasions of Thrace were a series of three consecutive invasions into Byzantine Thrace by large Magyar armies, during the reigns of Emperors Constantine VII and Romanos II, occurring annually from 959 to 961. The Byzantine armies met and repulsed each of these, though smaller attacks on Thrace by bands of Magyars continued for the following years until 970.
