How to Find This Location

The dump point is located within the old Ballarat Showgrounds complex in Wendouree.

  1. Main Access: From the center of Ballarat, head north on Creswick Road toward Wendouree.

  2. Entrance: The showgrounds are on the corner of Creswick Road and Howitt Street. Entrance is usually via the gates on Creswick Road.

  3. On-Site: The dump point is located inside the grounds, often positioned near the cattle pavilions or the main amenities block on the eastern side of the arena.

  4. Important Note: The Ballarat Agricultural and Pastoral Society has recently relocated its major events to a new site at 6 Rose Hill Road, Mount Rowan. While the Wendouree site has historically hosted the dump point, access may be restricted during redevelopment or local events like the Sunday Market (Trash and Treasure).

Pro Tip: If the showgrounds gates are locked, the nearest alternative is the Eureka Stockade Holiday Park (104 Stawell Street South), though a small fee may apply for non-guests.
