Southern Victoria is a village in the Canadian provinceofNew Brunswick. It was formed through the 2023 New Brunswick local governance reforms.

The village is divided by the Saint John River.
Southern Victoria is host to the annual Gathering of the Scots Festival[2] at Veteran's Field on the last weekend in May and the Larlee Creek Hullabaloo[3] in August, held at Baird's Campground.
