Map of the results of the 2019 South Kesteven District Council election. Conservatives in blue, Liberal Democrats in orange, Labour in red, and independents in grey.

The 2019 South Kesteven District Council election took place on 2 May 2019 to elect members of South Kesteven District Council. This was on the same day as other local elections. The entire council (56 seats) was up for election. The incumbent Conservatives lost 5 seats and UKIP lost 1, while independents gained 5 and the Liberal Democrats gained 2.[1] Two wards (Aveland and Dole Wood) did not hold a vote, as an equal number of candidates ran as seats available.
