The Shire of Bet Bet was a local government area located about {{convert|180|km|mi|0}} northwest of Melbourne, the state capital of Victoria, Australia. The shire covered an area of {{convert|928.2|km2|sqmi|1}}, and existed from 1861 until 1995.

History

Bet Bet was first incorporated as a road district on 18 January 1861, and became a shire on 20 September 1864.

On 1 October 1915, two boroughs were united with Bet Bet; Tarnagulla Borough, established on 12 August 1857, with an area of {{convert|20.77|km2|sqmi|2}}, and Dunolly Borough, established on 21 May 1858, with an area of {{convert|23.31|km2|sqmi|2}}.[2]

On 20 January 1995, the Shire of Bet Bet was abolished, and, along with the City of Maryborough, the Shire of Tullaroop and a number of surrounding districts, was merged into the newly created Shire of Central Goldfields. The Tarnagulla district was transferred to the newly created Shire of Loddon.[3]
