Harbour Town refers to the shopping centre concept to collocate factory outlets in one centre. There are presently four such centres operating in Australia. They are especially popular with tourists, although many locals also shop there.
As at September 2009, there were four locations: Biggera Waters, on Queensland's Gold Coast; West Perth, in Western Australia; Adelaide Airport, in South Australia and at Water Front City, Docklands in Melbourne, Victoria.
