Eastlands is Tasmania's largest shopping centre; it is located on the eastern side of the Derwent River, in the shopping district of Rosny Park, and within the greater area of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia. It has a gross lettable area of about 33,000 m² (360,000 sq ft).^{[citation needed]}

Eastlands contains two major discount department stores (Big W and Kmart, two major supermarkets: Coles, and Woolworths), along with approximately one hundred specialty stores, as well as a multi-level carpark.^{[citation needed]} It is located adjacent to the Rosny Bus Ball.^{[clarification needed]}

The shopping centre was the first of its kind in Tasmania, and has seen many refurbishments over the years.^{[citation needed]} It has recently opened its new mall (facing Rosny Hill Road), containing a renovated Kmart and seventeen specialty stores.^[1][when?]

In 2016, a woman was arrested after attempting to rob the centre's JB Hifi store with armed a syringe.^[2] In 2021, a 30-year-old man doused customers at the centre's Caltex petrol station in turpentine and attempted to set a woman on fire. He was sentenced to a two years suspended sentence after the judge accepted his plea of being influenced by drug induced psychosis.^[3] The centre sustained minor flood damage in 2021, when stormwater gutters overflowed, causing water to rush into the centre's food court and through the roofs of some shops.^[4]
