Pakington Street
Pakington Street is a boutique shopping strip in Geelong, Victoria, Australia.
Known as “Pako” to local residents, the strip stretches between the suburbs of Geelong West at its North end and Newtown to the South. The south end of Pakington Street is commonly referred to as the "Paris end",[1] due to its high density of high-end designer boutiques and exclusive restaurants, while the north end is home to a myriad of shops including retail, fashion, restaurants, pubs and local services.
Every February, the street hosts the Pakington Street Festa or Pako Festa; a parade dedicated to celebrating the multicultural heritage of the area.
