The 2021 Sheffield City Council election took place on 6 May 2021 to elect members of Sheffield City Council in England, as part of the nationwide local elections. The election was originally due to take place on 7 May 2020, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. One seat from each ward was up for election.

A delayed local governance referendum (held under the provisions of the Localism Act 2011) also took place at the same time as the local elections.
