Kirkdale ward was an electoral division of Liverpool City Council centred on the Kirkdale and Vauxhall areas of Liverpool.

The ward was first established in 1895 before being dissolved in 1952, it was later reconstituted for the 2004 Municipal elections and again made defunct following boundary changes in 2023.

A review by the Boundary Committee for England recommended that the council was formed of a reduced number of 90 members elected from 30 wards.

[1] The ward was part of the Liverpool Riverside Parliamentary constituency.

After the boundary change of 2004 the whole of Liverpool City Council faced election.
