Brighton and Hove City Council election, 2007

Elections to Brighton and Hove City Council on the south coast of England were held on 3 May 2007. The whole council (a unitary authority) was up for election and all 54 councillors were elected.

The Green Party increased its number of seats from 6 to 12.

Following the election, the composition of the council was as follows:
