The 2002 Greek local elections elected representatives to Greece's super-prefectures, 54 prefectures, provinces, and approximately 1,033 communities and municipalities.

The local elections in Greece traditionally occur during the month of October.

Candidates at local elections do not run under the official name of the party they belong, but form electoral platforms with different names for the purpose.
