Bracknell Town Council is the parish council covering the town of Bracknell in Berkshire, England. Established in 1955 as Bracknell Parish Council, it was renamed in April 1974. With a population of over 60,000 as of the 2021 census, the council covers one of the most populous civil parishes in the country.

Unlike many parish councils, which are dominated by independents, the council has been dominated by political parties since its first election in March 1955, and has alternated between Conservative and Labour control.
