The 2024 Winchester City Council election took place on 2 May 2024 to elect members of Winchester City Council in Hampshire, England.[2] This was on the same day as other local elections across England, and Hampshire's and the Isle of Wight's Constabulary Police and Crime Commissioner election.
As is typical for Winchester's local elections, fourteen seats of the forty-five total were contested. Not all wards had a seat open for election: the two wards Upper Meon Valley and Colden Common & Twyford will next be contested in 2026. The council was already under Liberal Democrat majority control; their majority increased at this election.
