Biloela & The Banana Shire

Biloela - Land Of The White Cockatoo

"Biloela" (an Aboriginal word meaning White Cockatoo) is the largest town in the Banana

Shire, which is located 596km north of Brisbane, 120km west of Gladstone, 145km south-

west of Rockhampton and 173 metres above sea-level.

Biloela's economy is driven by pastoral and agricultural enterprises and by the local coal

mines and power station, although, mercifully, the town could never by described as a

mining town.

Specifically, local income is generated by annual livestock slaughtering, cotton production,

dairy, wheat, sorghum, lucerne and other grains and cereals.

Due to its location at the intersection of the Dawson and Burnett Highways, the town is the

hub of the Banana Shire and is well supplied with accommodation, shops, retail outlets,

catering facilities, etc.
