Cabonne Council is a local government area in the Central West region of New South Wales, Australia.

The Shire is located adjacent to the Mitchell Highway and the Broken Hill railway line, partly surrounding the City of Orange.

More than half of the businesses in the region, being 858 of 1683, are classified as part of the agricultural sector.

[11] A 2015 review of local government boundaries recommended that the Cabonne Shire merge with the Orange City and Blayney Shire Councils to form a new council with an area of 7,833 square kilometres (3,024 sq mi) and support a population of approximately 63,000.

[12] As a result of the state government's decision to not proceed with proposed council amalgamations, this no longer applies.
