Rockhampton is an electoral district of the Legislative Assembly in the Australian state of Queensland.

History
In 1864, the Additional Members Act created six additional electoral districts, each returning 1 member:
Clermont
Kennedy
Maryborough
Mitchell
Rockhampton
Warrego
The first elections in these six electorates were held in 1865 (that is, during a parliamentary term and not as part of a general election across Queensland). The nomination date for the election in Rockhampton was 30 January 1865 and the election was held on 1 February 1865.
