The 2024 Grand Rapids mayoral election will take place on November 5, 2024, to elect the mayor of Grand Rapids, Michigan, concurrently with other 2024 Michigan elections, including the 2024 United States presidential election, United States Senate election in Michigan, and elections to the Michigan state legislature. This is the first election for mayor to take place in an even-year after Grand Rapids voters approved Prop 1 in 2020, which moved city elections to even years.
Incumbent Rosalynn Bliss, the city's first female mayor, is term limited and unable to seek re-election.
