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 was a new district created due to the abolition of the districts of Seymour, Rodney 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]

After its formation, Euroa was classed as a safe Nationals seat, with a margin of 13.6%.[3] In the 2014 state election, the first election at which the seat was contested, Stephanie Ryan won it for the Nationals, picking up an estimated swing in her favour, even as the Victorian Coalition lost government.
