Estella is a northern suburb of Wagga Wagga, New South Wales, Australia. The suburb is relatively new with development commencing in the 1980s, however growth has been slow and land is still being subdivided.

The suburb is located directly to the south of Charles Sturt University, and to the west of Boorooma. The southern and western boundaries of the suburb are Old Narrandera Road and Pine Gully Road respectively.
