The 2023 Hamamatsu Mayoral Election was held on April 9, 2023, to elect the new mayor of Hamamatsu. It was held as part of the 2023 Japanese unified local elections.

The election saw newcomer candidate Yusuke Nakano, an independent with support from both the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan and Komeito, winning a landslide victory. He was opposed by Hiroshi Shimada, an independent supported by the Japanese Communist Party, with 19.7% of the vote.

Nakano and Takami were the only two candidates to run, with the incumbent mayor, Yasutomo Suzuki, refusing to seek re-election.
