The 2011 Stroud Council election was held on 6 May 2011, to elect 18 of the 51 members of the Stroud District Council in England. The system at the time was for one third of the seats to be contested for three years, and one year with no elections, so normally only 17 seats would have been vacant. Candidates from six parties, and two independents, campaigned for the seats, in individual races, except in Nailsworth where two seats were vacant, as a result of Green councillor Fi MacMillan stepping down a year early. The Labour Party won the most seats, seven.
