A Dáil by-election was held in the constituency of Wicklow in Ireland on Thursday, 18 June 1953, to fill a vacancy in the 14th Dáil. It followed the death of Fianna Fáil Teachta Dála (TD) Thomas Brennan on 22 January 1953.
The writ of election to fill the vacancy was agreed by the Dáil on 27 May 1953.
The by-election was won by the Fine Gael candidate Mark Deering. It was held on the same day as the 1953 Cork East by-election. Both by-elections were won by Fine Gael candidates.
The runner-up Paudge Brennan of Fianna Fáil, was elected for Wicklow at the 1954 general election.
