Pemberontakan Eureka (bahasa Inggeris: Eureka Rebellion) yang berlaku dalam tahun 1854 ialah sebuah pemberontakan yang penting dari segi sejarah Australia. Ia merupakan pemberontakan pelombong emas di Ballarat, Victoria yang menentang pihak berkuasa kolonial United Kingdom. Pertempuran Kubu Eureka (bahasa Inggeris: Eureka Stockade, gelaran popular buat pemberontakan ini) berlangsung antara pelombong dan Angkatan Kolonial Australia (Colonial forces of Australia) pada 3 Disember 1854 di Eureka Lead. Nama pertempuran diambil sempena nama kubu yang dibina para pelombong semasa konflik tersebut.^[2] Pertempuran berakhir dengan kematian sekurang-kurangnya 27 orang, majoritinya pelombong, dan kejadian ini ialah konflik yang paling signifikan dalam sejarah kolonial Victoria.

Nasib para pemberontak banyak mendapat simpati khalayak umum apabila mereka dibicarakan di kota Melbourne when they were placed on trial resulted in the introduction of the Electoral Act 1856, yang memberi mandat hak mengundi kepada para rakyat lelaki kepada dewan rakyat parlimen jajahan Victoria; lalu ia menjadi langkah demokrasi politik kedua dikenakan dalam sejarah Australia.^[3] Para penduduk wanita diberikan hak sama 5 tahun kemudian dengan syarat pemilikan harta.^[4] Maka, pemberontakan ini dikenalpasti secara kontroversinya sebagai bermulanya demokrasi di Australia ataupun sebagai sebuah pemberontakan politik.^[5]^[6]^[7]
