Montréal municipal elections and voting
When is the next municipal election in Montréal?
As reviewed on November 3, 2026, the next scheduled general municipal election for Montréal is November 4, 2029. Check the city election office separately for any local by-election and the eventual voting arrangements.
Where to begin
- Choose the election level: federal, provincial or territorial, or municipal.
- Check the current election notice and your voter registration with the responsible election authority.
- Use that election’s official lookup for your voting options, polling place, identification and deadlines.
Before you open the official service
- The election level and province or territory; include the city for a municipal election.
- Use your address or postal code directly in the official election service to identify the correct riding and voting location.
Check registration, identification and the current election’s voting arrangements with the official authority.
What to check for your situation
Dates, candidates and voting arrangements can change. A scheduled general-election date is not a guarantee that an earlier election will not be called. Past election locations and deadlines are not instructions for the next election.
Voting rules depend on the election level and location. Do not reuse a previous election’s deadlines or polling address.
Election and voting questions
Where can I vote locally?
Use Élections Montréal’s current election notice and voting-location tool. The last reviewed general election was November 2, 2025 and has passed. Its old locations and hours must not be used as instructions to vote now.
- Open the official city election service.
- Select the current event and follow its voter instructions; contact the election office if the needed information is not published.
How do I register locally?
Check your municipal voter-list entry with Élections Montréal, using the current election’s instructions. Do not assume you can register on voting day; registration deadlines and procedures vary.
- Open the official city election service.
- Select the current event and follow its voter instructions; contact the election office if the needed information is not published.
What ID do I need locally?
Check Élections Montréal’s accepted-ID instructions for the current election. The federal ID list does not establish what this municipality accepts.
Who can vote locally?
Use Élections Montréal’s municipal eligibility rules. Residency, property-related conditions and school-board qualifications can be different; a federal voter registration does not confirm local eligibility.
Can I vote by mail locally?
Check with Élections Montréal whether mail or another alternative is offered for the current election, who qualifies, and the application and return deadlines. I have not verified arrangements for the next election.
Can I vote early locally?
Use Élections Montréal for current advance-voting dates and places. Do not reuse advance dates from the completed 2025 general election.
Can I get help voting locally?
Contact Élections Montréal about accessible locations and assistance for the current election. Confirm any advance-request requirements.
Can I vote online locally?
Online ballot availability must be checked for the actual municipal election. I have not verified it for the next Montréal election; online voter-list updates are not proof that online voting is offered.
Who is running locally?
Use Élections Montréal’s candidate list for the current election and your ward or district. A current council directory does not establish who is running.
Where are the municipal results?
Use Élections Montréal’s results page and check the election date and whether results are official or preliminary.
Check current by-elections
A by-election concerns a particular vacant seat, not every voter in the province or city. I have not verified an upcoming by-election for this area. Check the current notices from Élections Montréal.
