Glenburnie is a town in the Australian state of South Australia located in the state's southeast adjoining the border with Victoria about 385 kilometres (239 mi) south-east of the state capital of Adelaide and about 9.3 kilometres (5.8 mi) east of the municipal seat of Mount Gambier.[1][3]

Its boundaries were created in 1999 for the "long established name" which derives from an early homestead in the area.

The Mount Gambier Racecourse and the Borderline Speedway are located in Glenburnie.

The 2016 Australian census which was conducted in August 2016 reports that Glenburnie had a population of 376 people.[2]
