Municipal elections were held in Costa Rica on Sunday, February 4, 2024, to elect all municipal offices in the country: mayors, aldermen, syndics (district council presidents), district councilors and the intendants of seven special autonomous districts, together with their respective alternates in all cases (see local government in Costa Rica). These were the sixth direct municipal elections since the amendment to the 1998 Municipal Code and the second to be held mid-term since the 2009 reform. [2]
In the newly founded canton of Monteverde and canton of Puerto Jiménez, the election of mayor and members of the City Council were held for the first time.
