The 2021 Reading Council election took place in 2021 to elect members of Reading Borough Council. This was on the same day as other local elections. The election was originally due to take place in May 2020, but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Council elections for the Reading Borough Council were last held on 2 May 2019 as part of the 2019 United Kingdom local elections. The council will undergo a major boundary revision to apply from the 2022 elections.
All locally registered electors (British, Irish, Commonwealth and European Union citizens) who are aged 18 or over on polling day are entitled to vote in the local elections.
