The City of Sandringham was a local government area about 20 km south of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia, on the eastern side of Port Phillip. The city covered an area of 14.97 km2, and existed from 1917 until 1994.

History

Sandringham was originally part of the Shire of Moorabbin, and was severed and incorporated as the Borough of Sandringham on 28 February 1917. It was proclaimed a town on 9 April 1919, and a city on 21 March 1923. On 15 December 1994, the City of Sandringham was abolished, and along with the City of Brighton and parts of the City of Moorabbin, plus the eastern section of Beaumaris from the City of Mordialloc, was merged into the newly created City of Bayside. Council meetings were held at the Municipal Offices, on Royal Avenue, Sandringham. It presently serves as a corporate centre for the City of Bayside.
