The 1989 Atlanta mayoral election occurred on October 3, 1989. Former mayor Maynard Jackson won a third non-consecutive term in a landslide victory.

Incumbent mayor Andrew Young was barred from seeking reelection due to term limits.[1]

Since Jackson received a majority in the general election, no runoff election needed to be held.
