Elections to Belfast City Council were held on 19 May 1993 on the same day as the other Northern Irish local government elections.

The election used nine district electoral areas to elect a total of 51 councillors, most representing the more heavily populated north and west.

The UUP remained the largest party, and Reg Empey became the Lord Mayor.
