Tarlac City held local elections on May 13, 2013, within the Philippine general election. The voters elected candidates for mayor, vice mayor, and ten councilors. Incumbent mayor Gelacio Manalang won the elections, securing him to serve his second three-year term as the mayor of Tarlac City. Manalang defeated former mayor Genaro Mendoza, former city administrator and health officer Jerome Lapeña, and incumbent 2nd district provincial board member Danilo Asiaten.
Manalang's running mate, the incumbent vice mayor Mike Tañedo, topped the vice mayoral race, securing him to serve his second three-year term as the city's vice mayor. Tañedo defeated incumbent city councilor Ana Aguas by a wide margin.
