The 2010 Gloucester City Council election took place on 6 May 2010 to elect members of Gloucester City Council in England. Although two wards changed parties, one went from Labour to Conservative and the other went from Conservative to Labour, so there was no net change in the overall number of seats held by each party. The council remained under no overall control. After the election, Paul James continued to serve as leader of the council, leading a Conservative minority administration.
