Showgrounds railway station is located on the Flemington Racecourse line in Victoria, Australia. It serves the Melbourne Showgrounds in the suburb of Flemington, and opened on 7 November 1883.

The station is only used during special events at the Melbourne Showgrounds, such as the annual Royal Melbourne Show.

There are three signal boxes at Showgrounds, although the one included in a rostrum on the platform was decommissioned in 2014. There are several portable buildings providing staff amenities, and a wooden building for selling rail tickets. Also on the platform are turnstiles for entry to the Melbourne Showgrounds, and a Ticketek booking office for admission tickets to events there.
