The 2022 presidential campaign of Isko Moreno began on September 22, 2021, when Isko Moreno announced his intention to run for the presidency in the 2022 Philippine presidential election. Isko Moreno has served as the mayor of Manila, the country's capital city, from June 30, 2019 to June 30, 2022.

Moreno ran on a platform highlighting his track record in Manila and promising to replicate his 3-year achievements as first-termed mayor on a national scale. His economic platform covers health, housing, education, infrastructure, tourism, agriculture, livelihood, digital transformation, good governance, and "smart governance". He also vowed to lower utility expenses and continue certain policies of then incumbent President Rodrigo Duterte such as infrastructure development and the campaign against illegal drugs while maintaining adherence to human rights.

Moreno lost the election by a wide margin, ultimately placing fourth out of ten candidates with 1,933,909 votes. Moreno later conceded to then presumptive president-elect Bongbong Marcos a day after the election. Had Moreno been elected, he would have been the second president from Manila and the third mayor to run for the presidency and win. His campaign has been observed to have been affected by his lack of political machinery, minimal media coverage, and insufficient counter to overwhelming disinformation against him.
