Periodic elections for the Tasmanian Legislative Council were held on 1 August 2020. They were initially planned for 30 May; however, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the electoral commission delayed the date of the election until August, in anticipation for the next Legislative Council sitting date on 25 August.

The two seats up for election were Huon and Rosevears. They were previously contested in 2014.
