The 2021 Finns Party leadership election (Finnish: Perussuomalaisten puheenjohtajavaalit 2021) was held in Jyväskylä, Finland, on 14 August 2021.[1] All members of the party who had paid their subscription were allowed to vote in the election.[2]
In June 2021, the incumbent party chair Jussi Halla-aho, who had led the party since 2017, informed that he would not run for re-election as chairman of the party, but would continue his role in parliament and his municipality.
Riikka Purra won the election in the first round with more than 60% of the vote, avoiding a runoff.
