Our host districts
Four districts are hosting the 2028 Victorian Lions Convention together, with equal responsibility for the event — and every Victorian Lion and Leo is invited to join them.
Hosted together
Four districts. One convention.
Lions Districts 201 V1-4, V3, V5 and V6 share responsibility for the shared convention through the Convention Committee. Each district also holds its own Annual General Meeting during the weekend.
District 201
V1-4
Central and north-west Victoria — from Melbourne through Ballarat and Bendigo to the Mallee.
Stretching from Melbourne’s north and west through the goldfields cities of Ballarat and Bendigo to the Mallee and Robinvale, V1-4’s clubs serve inner-city neighbourhoods and small country towns alike — from Victoria’s first Lions club, chartered in 1952, to clubs formed in the past year.
District 201
V3
South-eastern Victoria — the Mornington Peninsula, Casey and Gippsland to Mallacoota.
From the Mornington Peninsula and Casey across Gippsland to Mallacoota, V3’s Lions clubs serve coastal, farming and growing outer-suburban communities, with a proud record of practical disaster recovery after the 2019–20 bushfires.
District 201
V5
Melbourne’s east and south-east, and the Goulburn Valley to Shepparton.
Covering Melbourne’s eastern and south-eastern suburbs and reaching north through the Goulburn Valley to Shepparton, V5’s Lions clubs blend metropolitan and rural service, including specialty clubs that bring together members of the deaf and hard-of-hearing, all-abilities and performing-arts communities.
District 201
V6
The Murray and the north-east — from Kerang and Quambatook to Bright and Corryong.
Following the Murray from Kerang and Quambatook to the high country at Bright and Corryong, V6’s Lions clubs serve river towns, farming districts and alpine communities, with projects including the District Fruit Fly Project and Turban Angels.
