The 2022 Christchurch mayoral election was a local election held from 16 September to 8 October in Christchurch, New Zealand, as part of that year's city council election and nation-wide local elections. Voters elected the mayor of Christchurch for the 2022–2025 term of the Christchurch City Council. Postal voting and the first-past-the-post voting system was used.

Incumbent third-term mayor Lianne Dalziel did not run for re-election. Centre-right independent Phil Mauger narrowly defeated centre-left independent David Meates.
