Jenő Brandi (born May 23, 1913 in Budapest , † December 4, 1980 ibid) was a Hungarian water polo player.
Brandi first took part in the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin, where he took part in three of the group games and threw four goals in them. Hungary qualified for the final round, in which Brandi was used in both games. After a 5-0 win against France, a 2-2 draw against Germany was enough for him to join his teammates György Bródy , Kálmán Hazai , Olivér Halassy , Márton Homonnay , Mihály Bozsi , János Németh , István Molnár , György Kutasi , Sándor Tarics and Miklós Sárkány could win the gold medal.
Brandi also took part in the first Olympic Games after World War II, in which Hungary won the silver medal, and Italy became Olympic champion.
