The 2022 South Australian local elections were held on 12 November 2022 to elect the councils of 66 of the 68 local government areas (LGAs) in South Australia. Many councils also held mayoral elections.[1]

The elections were conducted by the Electoral Commission of South Australia. Starting at these elections, roadside election corflutes were banned.[2]

The number of people on the electoral roll increased from 1,208,858 at the 2018 elections to 1,243,661 in 2022.[3]

As per usual, no election was scheduled in Roxby Council as it is served by an administrator who performs all the functions of a council.[4] The election in Coober Pedy was not held as the council had been suspended in January 2019.[5]
