The Shire of Calliope was a local government area in the Capricornia region of Queensland, Australia. It was centred on the town of Calliope.[2]

History

Calliope Division was created on 11 November 1879 as one of 74 divisions around Queensland under the Divisional Boards Act 1879 with a population of 1044.[3]

On 7 January 1902 part of Calliope Division was separated to create Miriam Vale Division.[4]

With the passage of the Local Authorities Act 1902, Calliope Division became the Shire of Calliope on 31 March 1903.

In 1927, the council hall was in Gladstone.[5]

Following the report of the Local Government Reform Commission released in July 2007, three former local government areas:

  • City of Gladstone
  • Shire of Calliope
  • Shire of Miriam Vale

were amalgamated to form Gladstone Region on 15 March 2008.[2][5]
