The 2024 Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council election took place on 2 May 2024 to elect members of Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council in Hampshire, England, alongside other local elections in England and Wales.[1] A third of the council's 54 seats were up for election.
The council remained under no overall control. The Conservative Party remained the largest party, but lost nearly a third of their seats, bringing their seat count down to 16. Labour, the Liberal Democrats, the Green Party, and the Basingstoke & Deane Independents all gained seats from the Conservatives.
