Lisburn South is one of the seven district electoral areas (DEA) in Lisburn and Castlereagh, Northern Ireland. The district elects six members to Lisburn and Castlereagh City Council and contains the wards of Ballymacash, Ballymacoss, Knockmore, Lagan Valley, Lisnagarvey and Old Warren. Lisburn South forms part of the Lagan Valley constituencies for the Northern Ireland Assembly and UK Parliament.
It was created for the 1993 local elections, largely replacing the old Lisburn Town DEA and gaining areas from the Downshire DEA and Killultagh DEA, where it contained seven wards (Blaris, Hilden, Hillhall, Lagan Valley, Old Warren and Tonagh), and was known as Lisburn Town South. For the 2014 local elections, Blaris moved to Downshire West DEA, and Hilden moved to Lisburn North DEA, while Ballymacash, Ballymacoss and Lisnagarvey moved from Lisburn North DEA.
