Boglárka Dévai (born 12 November 1999) is a Hungarian female artistic gymnast. She is the 2018 European champion and 2017 European bronze medalist on vault.[1][2] She participated at the 2015 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Glasgow.[3]

Dévai found international success when she won the bronze medal in the vault final at the 2017 European Artistic Gymnastics Championships behind Coline Devillard and Ellie Downie.[4] She won the event at the 2018 European Artistic Gymnastics Championships ahead of Angelina Melnikova of Russia and Denisa Golgota of Romania after upgrading her Yurchenko half-on vault to a Cheng. In doing so, she became the first Hungarian female gymnast to win a gold medal at the European Championships since Adrienn Varga also won vault in 1998.[5][6]
