Wingecarribee Shire Council is composed of nine councillors elected proportionally to a single ward.

Labor, the Greens and the Libertarian Party contested the election with endorsed party tickets. [23]

The National Party does not endorse candidates in local elections, but the party's Southern Highlands branch supposed the "Wingecarribee First" ticket, which included two Independent Nationals and was led by former Nationals member Sara Moylan. [24] [25] [26]

Additionally, although the Liberal Party is not endorsing candidates, a group comprised entirely of Liberal members contested. [33]
