The 2025 Upper Hutt City Council election was a local election to be held from 9 September to 11 October in Upper Hutt, New Zealand, as part of that year's territorial authority elections and other local elections held nation-wide.

Voters elected the mayor of Upper Hutt, 10 city councillors, and other local representatives for the 2025–2028 term of the Upper Hutt City Council. Postal voting and the first-past-the-post voting system were used.

Urban planner and transport advisor Peri Zee won the mayoralty. Zee defeated the incumbent of 24 years Wayne Guppy, who had been seeking a ninth term as mayor.
