Elections to East Kilbride District Council were held on 5 May 1988, on the same day as the other Scottish local government elections. This was the fifth election to the district council following the local government reforms in the 1970s.
The election used the 16 wards created by the Initial Statutory Reviews of Electoral Arrangements in 1980. Each ward elected one councillor using first-past-the-post voting.
Labour maintained control of the district council after winning 14 of the 16 seats – taking over half of the popular vote. The remaining two seats were won by the Conservatives. The Scottish National Party (SNP) came second on the popular vote but did not gain any seats as the election resulted in the same political composition as the previous election.
