Victoria Square/Tarndanyangga tram stop is on the Glenelg and City Shuttle lines in Adelaide. It is located off-street on the western side of Victoria Square in the inner city of Adelaide.

The stop is adjacent to a number of Adelaide landmarks, including the Hilton Hotel and the Adelaide Central Markets.

For many years, Victoria Square was the terminus of the Glenelg tramline, with the line terminating at a now dismantled stop, which was located in the middle of Victoria Square. In 2007, in conjunction with the tramline extentsion to City West, the line was diverted along the western fringe of the square to where to new stop is located, and the old, outdated station was closed.
