Yarra City Council is composed of three multi-member wards, each electing three councillors.[20]

All five Greens candidates were elected, giving the party a majority − the first time the party had won a majority on any council in Victoria.[21] Two independents and two Independent Socialist candidates were also elected.[22][23]

The Labor Party endorsed five candidates, including Rowan Payne, who replaced Alicia Carr as one of two candidates in Langridge Ward after she withdrew for family reasons.[24][25] However, they were unable to win any seats, marking the first time since the council's first election in 1996 that Labor had been without elected representation in Yarra.[26]

The Reason Party endorsed three candidates, while the Liberal Democratic Party and Animal Justice Party had one candidate each.[27] A local group, Richmond First, had two candidates in Melba Ward.[28]
