The 2024 Thurrock Council election was held on 2 May 2024 to elect a third of the members of Thurrock Council in Essex, England. It was held on the same day as other local elections across England, including the 2024 Essex police and crime commissioner election. The Labour Party led by John Kent won control of the council for the first time since 2014 from the Conservative Party, which had previously governed in a minority administration with no overall control.[4]
