The 2024 Emilia-Romagna regional election took place in Emilia-Romagna, Italy, on 17–18 November 2024.
The elections were called following Stefano Bonaccini's election to the European Parliament, a position incompatible with his post as the regional president. He resigned on 12 July 2024, on the same day, the Democratic Party unanimously nominated Mayor of Ravenna Michele De Pascale as its candidate. On 25 July, the centre-right coalition announced the candidacy of Elena Ugolini, a former undersecretary of state and school principal, without a party affiliation.
De Pascale defeated Ugolini by a 16.7 points margin, winning nearly 57% of the popular vote. The number of seats of the centre-left coalition in the Regional Council increased by 5, giving them a 2/3 supermajority.
