About Geelong Memorial Park & Crematorium

Geelong Memorial Park & Crematorium is at 42–110 Burvilles Road, Armstrong Creek, south of central Geelong. Opened in 1988, it is managed by the Geelong Cemeteries Trust, a not-for-profit trust that cares for 22 locations across the region.

The park is home to the region’s crematorium, along with a chapel, pavilion and function room, so the service, cremation and gathering can all take place in one location.

Families can also choose lawn burials with a headstone or plaque, and a wide range of memorials for ashes, including gardens, boulders, bench seats, roses, native gardens and niche walls. A dedicated memorial garden honours babies lost during pregnancy and infancy.

Gateway Funerals gave Dad a farewell beyond our expectations; he would be so happy. Brendan is so in tune with the emotional side, so respectful and diligent. We thank all the staff who answered emails within minutes. The establishment was immaculate, and a huge load was lifted from our shoulders. The catering was perfect, the flowers perfect and our celebrant, Anne Edwards, was 10,000% perfect! Absolutely nothing went wrong; we can highly recommend them.

Our family used Gateway Funerals for my brother Shannon’s service and we couldn’t be more grateful for how they looked after us. From the first conversation right through to the day of the service, they were kind, patient and very easy to deal with. During a really difficult time they helped guide us through everything and took a lot of the stress off our shoulders. The service itself at Bunurong Memorial Park was handled beautifully and everything ran smoothly. It meant a lot to our family knowing Shannon was being looked after with such care and respect. A big thank you to the whole Gateway team for helping us give my brother the send-off he deserved.
