By Belize Live News Staff: Election season is officially here. Prime Minister John Briceno has confirmed that Belize’s General Elections will take place on March 12, 2025, bringing an end to weeks of speculation and setting the stage for what is expected to be a fierce political battle.

In a public address, Briceno stated that he had just left the Governor General’s House, where he advised her to dissolve Parliament, a key constitutional step in paving the way for national elections. With this confirmation, Belizeans now have one month to decide the country’s future, as political parties shift into full campaign mode.

The ruling People’s United Party (PUP) will be defending its record in government, while the United Democratic Party (UDP) and other opposition groups will be working to convince voters that it is time for a change in leadership. With only weeks to go, the political climate is expected to intensify, with rallies, debates, and strategic efforts to win over undecided voters.

Now that the election date is official, the campaign trail is set to heat up, and Belizeans can expect an action-packed political season as parties fight to secure their place in government. The countdown to March 12 has begun, and the nation is gearing up for a critical moment in Belize’s democracy.
