Overview

Glen Innes sits at the crossroads of the New England and Gwydir Highways on the Northern Tablelands, serving as the administrative centre of Glen Innes Severn Shire. The 2021 census recorded 6,219 residents, many of whom enjoy easy access to the town’s heritage‑listed post office, former railway station (now repurposed) and a collection of well‑preserved federation buildings painted in traditional colours. A vibrant cultural scene is anchored by the Land of the Beardies History Museum, the Glen Innes Arts Council’s Chapel Theatre, regular festivals such as Minerama and the Australian Celtic Festival, and nearby natural attractions like Gibraltar Range and Washpool National Parks. Local amenities include a range of churches, a public art gallery, schools, and essential service businesses that support both residents and the surrounding agricultural district.
