The new COVID-19 cases included 101 linked to known cases and outbreaks and none in hotel quarantine.
Saturday also bought 48,487 test results to Victorians as well as 29,950 vaccinations being administered.
Victoria's active coronavirus case tally now sits at 1,417.
These cases come as Chief Health Officer Dr Brett Sutton said regional Victoria was 'on track' to having some restrictions eased next week.
At the COVID-19 press conference on Saturday, he said residents needed to "be alert" over the next few weeks.
"The regions are on track for some level of easing," Dr Sutton said.

"We are always alert, as should the regions be, to the risk that's coming through. That will remain so I hope no one driving drops their guard in the regions.
"I know they fiercely protect their COVID-free status that many of them have had for a long time."
"That risk will be managed through the public health directions as well in terms of the limitations of movement for Melburnians, but it will also be around the constraints to essential worker's movements and the like."
