The 2016 Brno central station referendum was a municipal referendum on the location of Brno main railway station, in Brno, Moravia, Czech Republic and the way of its future modernisation. Citizens voted on whether to retain the station at its current location and modernise it, or replace it with a new station at another location. The result of the referendum bound only local government. Nevertheless, it also indirectly affects government organs in the Czech Republic through the already existing system of contractual obligations. The referendum was held on 7 and 8 October 2016, the same day as regional elections.
