The 2023 East Suffolk District Council election took place on 4 May 2023 to elect members of East Suffolk District Council in Suffolk, England. This was held on the same day as other local elections. All 55 seats on the council were up for election.
Prior to the election the council was under Conservative majority control. The Conservative leader of the council, Steve Gallant, did not stand for re-election in 2023.
Following the results of the election, the Conservatives lost control of the council to no overall control, with the three opposition parties making gains at their expense. A coalition of the Greens, Liberal Democrats and the independent councillor subsequently formed.
