The 2023 Orlando mayoral election took place on November 7, 2023. Incumbent Mayor Buddy Dyer, the longest-serving mayor in city history, ran for re-election to his sixth full term. He faced three challengers: former City Councilman Sam Ings, former Republican State Senate candidate Steve Dixon, and businessman Tony Vargas.
Dyer entered the campaign as the frontrunner, significantly outraising and outspending his opponents, and earning the endorsement of the Orlando Sentinel. Dyer won re-election in a landslide, winning 73 percent of the vote, and avoiding the need for a runoff election.
