The 2008 Brisbane City Council election was held on 15 March 2008 to elect a lord mayor and 26 councillors to the City of Brisbane. The election was held as part of the statewide local government elections in Queensland, Australia.
The election resulted in the re-election of Campbell Newman of the Liberal Party as Lord Mayor, defeating Labor's Greg Rowell in a landslide with 66.1% of the mayoral two-party-preferred vote. The Liberals also won control of the council chambers, taking 5 wards from Labor for a total of 16 to Labor's 10. This was also the final BCC election contested by the Queensland Liberals, as they merged with the Queensland Nationals to form the Liberal National Party of Queensland a few months later in July.
