The 2019 Plymouth City Council election was held on 2 May 2019 to elect members of Plymouth City Council in England.

Labour won the election, winning ten of the nineteen seats up for election, with the Conservatives winning the other nine.
Background
Plymouth City Council held local elections on 2 May 2019 along with councils across England as part of the 2019 local elections. The council elects its councillors in thirds, with a third being up for election every year for three years, with no election each fourth year to correspond with councillors' four-year terms. Councillors defending their seats in this election were previously elected in 2015. In that election, ten Conservative candidates and nine Labour candidates were elected.
Following the 2018 Plymouth City Council election, the council has been controlled by the Labour Party, initially with thirty-one councillors.
Labour held its seat in a subsequent by-election in Stoke ward, which took place in July 2018. As the councillor who stood down was elected in the same cycle as 2019, Jemima Laing, the winner of the by-election, was the incumbent up for re-election. Kevin Neil, who was elected in 2018, was suspended from the Labour Party when a police investigation was launched into him. He continues to sit as an independent following the closure of the police investigation, pending an internal investigation by the party.
Labour and the Conservatives contested all nineteen seats up for election, whilst the Liberal Democrats stood seventeen candidates and the UK Independence Party stood twelve.
