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

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]
