Casino is a town in the Northern Rivers area of New South Wales, Australia, with a population of 10,914 people at the 2016 census.^[1] It lies on the banks of the Richmond River and is situated at the junction of the Bruxner Highway and the Summerland Way.

Overview[edit]

Casino is the seat of the Richmond Valley Council, a local government area.

British occupation of the area began in 1840 when pastoral squatters George Robert Stapleton and his business partner, Mr. Clay, set up a sheep station which they called Cassino after Cassino (near Monte Cassino) in Italy.^[3][4][5] The town now has a sister city agreement with the Italian village.^[6][7]

Casino is among Australia's largest beef centres. It is the regional hub of a very large cattle industry and positions itself as the 'Beef Capital' of Australia,^[8][9] although the city of Rockhampton also claims this title. In addition it is the service centre for a rich agricultural area.

Each year the town celebrates Beef Week. It was not held in 2007 but since that year, has continued to be held and celebrated with the 2019 one being held from 18 to 28 May.^[10]
