The 2022 Westminster City Council election took place on 5 May 2022. All 54 members of Westminster City Council were elected. The elections took place alongside local elections in the other London boroughs and elections to local authorities across the United Kingdom.

In the previous election in 2018, the Conservative Party had maintained their longstanding control of the council, winning 41 out of the 60 seats with the Labour Party forming the council opposition with the remaining 19 seats. However, Labour won an 8-seat council majority for the first time since the formation of the modern city in 1964.^[1] The 2022 election took place under new election boundaries, reducing the number of councillors to 54.
