The Canadian province of Quebec held municipal elections in its municipalities on November 6, 2005.

The municipalities in Quebec for the 2005 election were different from the previous 2001 election, as many municipalities had voted to de-amalgamate.

Every municipality in Quebec held elections except Port-Cartier, Thetford Mines, Sept-Îles and in the village and parish of Saint-Georges-de-Cacouna (they were held in 2006).

In addition to the municipalities, the prefects of 8 regional county municipalities were elected:
