The 2026 Paris municipal election is scheduled to take place in March 2026 to elect the Mayor of Paris and the Council of Paris. This election follows the two-term tenure of Anne Hidalgo, the first woman to serve as mayor of Paris, who announced in November 2024 that she would not seek a third term. The election is expected to be highly competitive, with multiple candidates from across the political spectrum already declaring or preparing their candidacies.
