The 1992 Bristol City Council election took place on 7 May 1992 to elect members of Bristol City Council in England. This was on the same day as other local elections. One third of seats were up for election. Two seats were contested in Hartcliffe due to an extra vacancy occurring. The elections were held just weeks after John Major's unexpected 1992 General election victory, and mirroring that result there was a strong swing from Labour to Conservative.
