Kęstutis Ivaškevičius (born 17 April 1985 in Klaipėda) is a Lithuanian footballer, currently playing for FBK Kaunas in the A Lyga.

Ivaškevičius is as an attacking midfielder, capable of playing wide right or centrally. He was loaned to Hearts for the 2006-07 season but has struggled to make an impact on the first team. He made his Hearts debut in September 2006, in a 4-0 victory over Alloa Athletic in the Scottish League Cup, with his first league appearance occurring 6 months later, in a 2-0 win at Motherwell. He scored his first league goal against Celtic on April 29 2007 in a surprising 3-1 win.
