The 42nd general election of Manitoba, tentatively scheduled for October 6, 2020, will be held to elect members to the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba. The Progressive Conservatives, led by Premier Brian Pallister, will attempt to win re-election for office for the first time. The Official Opposition will elect their next leader in September 2017. The Liberals will also elect a new leader to contest the next election.

Under the Manitoba Elections Act, the general election is to be held on the first Tuesday of October in the fourth calendar year, following the previous election. As the last election was held in 2016, that date would be October 6, 2020. However, the act also provides that if, as of January 1 of the election year, the election period would overlap with a federal election period, the provincial election is to be postponed until the third Tuesday of the following April.
