The 2025 New Zealand local elections (Māori: Nga Pōtitanga ā-Rohe 2025) will be held on 11 October 2025.[1] Local government in New Zealand has triennial elections to elect city and district mayors and councillors, regional councillors, and members of local boards. Most city and district councils will also hold a local referendum on Māori wards. Tauranga City Council will not hold elections as they had mid-term elections during 2024.

Background

[edit]

In 2023, the newly-formed Sixth National Government and its coalition partners ACT and New Zealand First pledged to "restore the right of local referendum on the establishment or ongoing use of Māori wards and constituencies."[2][3] Under the Local Government (Electoral Legislation and Māori Wards and Māori Constituencies) Amendment Act 2024, referenda will be held in 43 of the 45 local councils that had introduced Māori wards following the 2021 law change.[4][5][6] Two councils, the Kaipara District Council and the Upper Hutt City Council, had voted to disestablish their Māori wards rather than holding referenda.[7][8]

Elections

[edit]

Regional councils

Unitary authorities

[edit]

Unitary authorities are local government entities that have the powers of both a territorial authority and those of a regional council. There are currently five unitary authorities.

The Chatham Islands have a unique, separately-legislated council that has almost all the powers of a unitary authority.

Mayors

[edit]

All territorial authorities (including unitary authorities) directly elect mayors. Tauranga did not hold a mayoral election due to being under a Crown commission. An election was held in 2024 and there won't be an election in the city in 2025.
