2024 Colchester City Council election

Elections to Colchester City Council are due to take place on 2 May 2024 alongside other local elections across England.[1] Seventeen members of the council are due to be elected, one from each of the wards.

This set of seats were last up for election at the 2021 election. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the City Council election (then Borough) scheduled for 2020 was postponed one year to 2021. This resulted in the terms of councillors elected at the 2021 election being truncated to 3-years rather than the usual 4-years.
