The next London Mayor election is scheduled for Thursday, 2 May 2026. Yes, that’s just around the corner—like, practically popping up on your calendar while you’re still deciding what to have for lunch. Mark it down, because it’s a big one.
But wait—what if you miss it? Don’t panic. Elections in the UK are famously predictable, happening every four years on the first Thursday in May. So if 2026 slips by, you’ll get another chance in 2028. Kind of like the Olympics, but with more heckling and fewer medal ceremonies.
