An election to all 33 seats on Kerry County Council was held on 7 June 2024, as part of the 2024 Irish local elections. County Kerry is divided into 6 local electoral areas (LEAs) to elect councillors for a five-year term of office on the electoral system of proportional representation by means of the single transferable vote (PR-STV).

On 20 June, one day before the first sitting, Labour agreed to join Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael in a power-sharing agreement, which will end in 2029.

On 21 June, the newly-elected council met for the first time, with Breandán Fitzgerald of Fianna Fáil being appointed Cathaoirleach.
