The Electoral district of Euroa is an electoral district of the Victorian Legislative Assembly in Australia. It was created in the redistribution of electoral boundaries in 2013.[1]

It is a new district created due to the abolition of the districts of Seymour and Benalla, taking in the areas to the north of these districts toward Shepparton. It includes the towns of Benalla, Violet Town, Euroa, Seymour, Heathcote, Nagambie, Rushworth, and other towns in the Campaspe, Strathbogie, Benalla, and Mitchell local government areas.[2]

Euroa is estimated to be a safe Coalition seat with a margin of 13.6%.[3]
