1985 Brisbane City Council election

The 1985 Brisbane City Council election was held on 30 March 1985 to elect a lord mayor and 26 aldermen to the City of Brisbane. The election was held as part of the statewide local government elections in Queensland, Australia.

The incumbent Labor Party administration was defeated, with the Liberal Party winning more than 50% of the vote. Liberal candidate Sallyanne Atkinson defeated Roy Harvey in the lord mayoral election. As of 2024, Atkinson is the first and only female Lord Mayor of Brisbane.

This was the first and only election contested by the Brisbane Green Party, the predecessor to the Queensland Greens. The party contested the lord mayorship and four wards, but did not have any victories.

Future lord mayor Graham Quirk was elected in Rochedale Ward at this election.
