2023 Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council election

The 2023 election to Armagh City, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council was held on 18 May 2023, alongside other local elections in Northern Ireland, two weeks after local elections in England. The Northern Ireland elections were delayed by two weeks to avoid overlapping with the coronation of King Charles III.

The 41 councillors were elected via single transferable vote.
