Electoral district of Evelyn
- Electoral district of Evelyn
The Electoral district of Evelyn is an electorate of the Victorian Legislative Assembly covering the urban fringe north east of Melbourne. It was first proclaimed in 1859.
The seat has shrunk considerably in size as the eastern suburbs of Melbourne grew. It is now based around the suburbs and towns of Coldstream, Gruyere, Lilydale, and Wonga Park.
The seat is usually safe for the Liberal Party but it was won by the Labor Party during their three landslide victories of 1952, 1982 and 2002.
At the 2006 election Christine Fyffe regained the seat for the Liberals, defeating Heather McTaggart.
