Corridonia is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Macerata in the Italian region Marche, located about 40 kilometres (25 mi) south of Ancona and about 8 kilometres (5 mi) southeast of Macerata.

Corridonia was called, until 1931, Pausula. The name was changed by Benito Mussolini to honor Filippo Corridoni, an interventionist syndicalist who died on 23 October 1915.

Corridonia borders the following municipalities: Francavilla d'Ete, Macerata, Mogliano, Monte San Giusto, Monte San Pietrangeli, Morrovalle, Petriolo, Tolentino, and Urbisaglia.
