2023 Wokingham Borough Council election

The 2023 Wokingham Borough Council election took place on Thursday 4 May 2023, to elect members of Wokingham Borough Council in Berkshire, England. This was on the same day as other local elections across England. One third of the council, 18 seats, was up for election.

Prior to the election the council was under no overall control. The Conservatives were the largest party but had lost control following the 2022 election to the "Wokingham Partnership" – a group comprising the Liberal Democrats, Labour and two independent councillors, led by Liberal Democrat leader, Clive Jones. At the 2023 election, the council remained under no overall control, but the Liberal Democrats overtook the Conservatives to become the largest party. At the subsequent annual council meeting on 18 May 2023, Clive Jones stood down as leader of the council, being replaced by new Liberal Democrat leader Stephen Conway.

The composition of the council before the election was as follows:
