The 1979 Waveney District Council election took place on 3 May 1979 to elect members of Waveney District Council in Suffolk, England. This was on the same day as the 1979 general election and other local elections. Much the other local elections in 1979, Labour made up some lost ground compared to their loss in the general election but the Conservatives narrowly retained overall control of the council.
