Vejlby is a north-eastern neighbourhood ofAarhus inDenmark. It is located 5km from the city centre and is administratively part of the district ofRisskov.

The neighbourhood of Vejlby was administratively merged with Risskov at the end of the 20th century and as a consequence, the district is often seen referred to as Vejlby-Risskov nowadays. There are several other places named Vejlby in Denmark, like the small village in the vicinity ofGrenå onMols, featured in the acclaimed novella "The Rector of Veilbye" bySteen Steensen Blicher.

Once a village and a suburb, Vejlby has now completely merged with the city of Aarhus, but can still present areas characterised by the old village around the old church and graveyard. Modern buildings of note, are the shopping mall of Veri Center, the dormitory ofBørglum Kollegiet with its notable architecture, a nursing and retirement centre, the large sports complex ofVejlby-Risskov Idrætscenter, the large residential areas of Veriparken, Næringen & Nyringen and Kantorparken. Important educational buildings comprise theRisskov Gymnasium (STX) and Handelsgymnasiet Vejlby (HHX). The only notable green area in Vejlby isMollerup Skov.
