The 2013 local elections were held in Split, Croatia on 19 May and 2 June 2013.

The incumbent HGS mayor Željko Kerum was running for a full four-year term after winning the previous elections on 31 May 2009. Kerum had a very controversial term as mayor between 2009 and 2013, which resulted in losing in the first round of elections with 18.51% of the votes. The second round of elections was very tense. The SDP candidate for mayor, Ivo Baldasar, won 49.08% and the HDZ candidate, Vjekoslav Ivanišević, 48.18%. After the elections, Vjekoslav Ivanišević asked for a vote recount because he only lost with 615 votes less than Baldasar. The recount was done and Baldasar was proclaimed the winner.

The SDP-HNS-HSU coalition won also in the council elections and formed a minor government.
