The Shire of Eidsvold was a local government area in the northern catchment of the Burnett River, Queensland, Australia. The shire covered an area of 4,809.4 square kilometres (1,856.9 sq mi), and existed as a local government area from 1890 until 2008, when it amalgamated with several other shires to form the North Burnett Region.

The major activities in the shire were beef cattle raising and forestry, and some irrigated properties existed along the Burnett and Nogo Rivers. Eidsvold was named after the Norwegian town of Eidsvoll, where the Norwegian declaration of freedom was signed in 1814.

The Eidsvold district is the self-proclaimed Beef Capital of the Burnett and is a hub for the regional cattle industry.
