The 2026 North East Lincolnshire Council election will be held on 7 May 2026, alongside the other local elections across the United Kingdom being held on the same day, to elect 15 of 42 members of North East Lincolnshire Council.

Due to ongoing local government reorganisation, this will be the final election to North East Lincolnshire Council before it is abolished and replaced by a successor unitary authority. Elections to the successor authority are due to take place in 2027.
