1973 Welwyn Hatfield District Council election

The 1973 Welwyn Hatfield District Council election took place on 7 June 1973 to elect members of Welwyn Hatfield District Council in England. This was on the same day as other local elections.

This was the inaugural election of Welwyn Hatfield District Council. The Labour party secured both a majority of the vote and a slim majority of the total seats, with only the Conservatives picking up any other seats on the council. This election is also the only time the Communist Party of Britain has ever contested any seats in Welwyn Hatfield, with one candidate in Haldens ward and another in Peartree ward. Both of them came last in their ward.
