Incumbent Mayor

Nicușor Dan
Independent



The former PSD mayor Gabriela Firea is running for a second non-consecutive mandate, after being defeated in 2020 by Nicușor Dan (then supported as an independent by the USR PLUS and PNL).

Cristian Popescu Piedone, mayor of Sector 5 from 2020 and former mayor of Sector 4 between 2008 and 2015, is running for Mayor from the PUSL Party.

After the withdrawal of Cătălin Cîrstoiu as a joint candidate of the PNL and PSD at the beginning of April, the Minister of Energy, Sebastian Burduja, announced his candidacy from the PNL for the position of mayor of Bucharest.

Also, other candidates are also running in the elections, such as the urbanist Alexandru Pînișoara from the Ecologist Party of Romania, the far-right senator Diana Șoșoacă and Enache Mihai from the Alliance for the Union of Romanians.[1][2]
