The 2023 Mid Suffolk District Council election took place on 4 May 2023 to elect members of Mid Suffolk District Council in Suffolk, England. This was on the same day as other local elections across England.

Ahead of the election the council was identified as a target for the Green Party; at the previous election in 2019 the Conservatives had retained control by a single seat, and in the Stowmarket St Peters ward the Conservative candidate had only won by a single vote. The Green Party launched their local election campaign in Stowmarket on 5 April 2023.

The Council has become highly competitive in recent years due to local opposition to large-scale housing development and concerns of damage to the rural environment. The Greens won majority control of a council for the first time at Mid Suffolk.
