The 2024 Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council elections are due to be held on 2 May 2024 alongside other local elections in the United Kingdom. One third of the 63 seats will be contested, with each successful candidate serving a four-year term of office, expiring in 2028. One third of all seats on Tameside Metropolitan Borough Council will be contested.

Background[edit]

Since its creation in 1974, Tameside has always been under Labour control, aside from 1978 to 1982 when the Conservatives held a majority.[1] The previous election in 2023, which took place following boundary changes and thus required all 57 seats to be contested,[2] saw Labour increase its majority by three seats at the expense of two Conservative seats and the sole seat of the Green Party on the council.[3]
