Overview

Wendouree is a large north‑western suburb of Ballarat, home to 10,376 residents (2021 census). It hosts Ballarat’s second major commercial and business hub, with the Howitt Street and Gillies Street shopping precincts, Stockland Wendouree, the Ballarat Sports and Events Centre, Eureka Stadium, the Showgrounds and the Wendouree Centre for the Performing Arts. Families benefit from a range of schools, including Ballarat Grammar, Mount Rowan Secondary College and four primary schools, as well as aged‑care villages, medical practices and the Queen Elizabeth aged‑care complex.

Public transport is centred on Wendouree railway station (opened 2009) and several bus routes linking the suburb to Ballarat Station, Alfredton and Miners Rest, while the new western bypass road promises future industrial growth. Housing is diverse: the historic Wendouree West estate provides a mix of original timber bungalows, renovated private homes and new retirement units, alongside newer private housing developments across the suburb.
