The 2026 Coventry City Council election was held on 7 May 2026 alongside the other local elections across the United Kingdom held on the same day.[3]
Background
In 2024, Labour retained control of the council.[4] Typically, one third of Coventry's council is elected each election, with elections happening every three out of four years, however in this election all 54 seats on Coventry City Council were elected due to ward boundary changes.[5] In each ward, three candidates were elected; the first-placed candidate was elected for a four year term, the second-placed candidate was elected for a two year term, and the third-placed candidate was elected for a one year term.
