An election to the Aberdeen Corporation was held on 6 May 1952, alongside municipal elections across Scotland. 36 of the corporation's 37 seats were up for election.
The election saw a large swing in favour of Labour, ending with a majority of 5 on the council. All seats were up for election as ward boundaries were redrawn and previously elected councilors' terms were cut short. This resulted in three seats being contested in each of the 12 wards. The 37th seat was that of the Dean of Guild, a member of the council appointed by the guilds of the city, who affiliated with the Progressives.
