Glenorchy, Administrative division in Tasmania, Australia

Glenorchy sits between the River Derwent and Mount Wellington, encompassing multiple areas including Moonah, Derwent Park, and Lutana within its boundaries.

The area transformed from agricultural lands in 1804 to a municipality in 1864, and finally received city status in 1964 following post-World War II growth.

The Glenorchy Art and Sculpture Park, Village Cinemas complex, and KGV Oval provide recreational spaces for residents and visitors throughout the year.

The suburb contains three major shopping centers: Northgate Shopping Centre, Glenorchy Central, and Glenorchy Plaza, serving the local population of 46,397.

The Elwick Racecourse hosts the Hobart Cup while the adjacent Hobart Showground represents all of Southern Tasmania in regional exhibitions.
