Broxtowe is a local government district with borough status in Nottinghamshire, England. It lies immediately west of the city of Nottingham, and most of the built-up areas of the borough form part of the Nottingham Urban Area. The council is based in Beeston and the borough also includes the towns of Eastwood, Kimberley and Stapleford and surrounding villages and rural areas.

The neighbouring districts are Ashfield, Nottingham, Rushcliffe, Erewash and Amber Valley.

The district was formed on 1 April 1974 under the Local Government Act 1972. The new district covered the whole area of two former districts and part of a third, which were all abolished at the same time:

The new district was named after the ancient Broxtowe Wapentake, which had covered a larger area. Despite the name, the district does not include the Broxtowe Estate, which is in Nottingham. The district was granted borough status in 1977, allowing the chair of the council to take the title of mayor.

Broxtowe Borough Council provides district-level services. County-level services are provided by Nottinghamshire County Council. Parts of the district are also covered by civil parishes, which form a third tier of local government.

The council has been under no overall control since January 2025, when the majority of the Labour councillors, including the leader of the council, Milan Radulovic, left the party. They were the largest group on the council, and managed to form a minority administration. They initially formed a group called the Broxtowe Independents, which was subsequently registered as a formal political party called the Broxtowe Alliance in February 2025.

The first election to the council was held in 1973, initially operating as a shadow authority before coming into its powers on 1 April 1974. Political control of the council since 1974 has been as follows:

The role of mayor is largely ceremonial in Broxtowe. Political leadership is instead provided by the leader of the council. The leaders since 1995 have been:
