Derry City Council (Irish: Comhairle Cathrach Dhoire) is a district council in County Londonderry in Northern Ireland. The headquarters of the council is in the city of Derry on Lough Foyle. The Council employs about 550 people, providing services to a population of about 107,300 as of June 2006.

Council elections, since 1973 conducted by a system of Single Transferable Vote, are held every four years. Each year, in June, at the Council's Annual Meeting, the Councillors elect a Mayor and a Deputy Mayor.

The Derry City Council area consists of 5 electoral areas: Cityside, Northland, Rural, Shantallow and Waterside. In 2005, the voters of Derry elected 30 members as follows: 14 Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP), 10 Sinn Féin, 5 Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), 1 Ulster Unionist Party (UUP). The current Mayor (as of June 2010) is SDLP Councillor Colum Eastwood

It took its present name in 1984; it was known as Londonderry City Council from 1973 until 1984. Between 1969 and 1973 Londonderry County Borough (covering the city of Derry) and Londonderry Rural District (covering the rural area around Derry, roughly corresponding to the Barony of Tirkeeran) were administered by the unelected Londonderry Development Commission with the aim of creating a "new town".
