The Mayor of Cebu City (Cebuano: Punong Dakbayan sa Sugbo) is the chief executive of the government of Cebu City in the Philippines. The mayor leads the city's departments in executing ordinances and delivering public services. The mayorship is a three-year term and each mayor is restricted to three consecutive terms, totaling nine years, although a mayor can be elected again after an interruption of one term.[3]

The current mayor is Raymond Alvin N. Garcia under BARUG-PDP–Laban. He succeeded Michael Rama after he was suspended by the Ombudsman for 6 months after he was charged of administrative abuse,[4] Rama succeeded Edgardo Labella after the latter died in office and was elected by his own right in the 2022 elections.[5]
