Benalla is a Rural City of about 10,000 people located in Bpangerang and Taungurung country in the State of Victoria in the south-east corner of mainland Australia.  It is situated in the north-east of the State on the Broken River, which has been dammed to form the picturesque Lake Benalla.  Only 200 km north of Melbourne on the Hume Freeway,  Albury/ Wodonga, Shepparton, Mansfield, the snow fields and wineries are not far away. 

Together with the Benalla Botanical Gardens, famous for its roses; Benalla has a stunning Regional Art Gallery, the Performing Arts and Convention Centre (BPACC), the Weary Dunlop memorial, acclaimed street art built up during the Benalla Wall to Wall Street Art Festival over recent years, the Waller Memorial, a superb Costume & Pioneer Museum; a unique Ceramic Mural and the historic court house at which Ned Kelly often appeared.
