The 2026 North Carolina House of Representatives election will be held on November 3, 2026, to elect all 120 members to North Carolina's House of Representatives. Representatives will serve two-year terms. The election will coincide with elections for other offices, including for the U.S Senate, U.S. House of Representatives, and State Senate. Primary elections will be held on March 3.

In 2024, Democrats broke the Republican's veto-proof super majority in newly drawn districts by one seat. They also won the popular vote, getting 51% of the vote. Despite this however, Democrats only won 49 seats.
