Map of Drouin, VIC 3818

Drouin () is a town in the West Gippsland region, 90 kilometres (56 mi) east of Melbourne, in the Australian state of Victoria. Its local government area is the Shire of Baw Baw, and is home to the shire council's headquarters despite being the second-largest town in the shire, behind neighbouring Warragul. Settlement in this part of Gippsland was rather delayed due to the dense forest. Pastoral runs were taken up but little developed. In 1867, a coach staging station was established on the track into Gippsland on the Old Sale Road at Brandy Creek, later known as Buln Buln about seven kilometres north-east of present Drouin. By the early 1870s, a small settlement had developed and land was being selected in the area.

New housing developments have accelerated the town's residential growth in recent years. As at the 2016 census, Drouin had a population of 11,887 people.
