On 12 September, the Tallinn Electoral Committee registered the candidates for the 2025 Tallinn City Council elections and conducted a draw to assign candidate numbers.
A total of 11 political parties, three electoral alliances, and 13 independent candidates have submitted their registration documents for the upcoming Tallinn City Council elections. In total, 1,125 candidates are competing for seats in the new City Council, which will be elected on 19 October. Candidate numbers will be assigned by a draw this Friday.
To vote in the Tallinn City Council elections, a voter’s official address in the population register must be in Tallinn no later than 19 September 2025. The voter lists are compiled based on the population register data as of that date.
From October onwards, Tallinn Zoo and Tallinn Botanical Garden will join the Museum Sundays programme. This pilot project will run until the end of 2025, after which its impact and visitor feedback will be assessed to decide on the next steps.
