A general election will be held in Spain no later than Sunday, 22 August 2027, to elect the members of the 16th Cortes Generales. All 350 seats in the Congress of Deputies will be up for election, as well as 208 of 266 seats in the Senate.

As the 2023 election resulted in no outright majority for either the right-wing or left-wing blocs, an agreement was reached between the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party (PSOE) and Together for Catalonia (Junts) to support the re-election of incumbent Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez, in exchange of a controversial amnesty law for Catalan politicians convicted or investigated for events related to the 2017–2018 Spanish constitutional crisis and the 2019–2020 Catalan protests. Sánchez's third cabinet was a continuation of the coalition between his party, the PSOE, and the political forces to its left, coalesced around the Sumar umbrella.
