Conargo, is a small rural town located in the Riverina region of New South Wales, Australia and is the seat of Conargo Shire. It is situated on the Billabong Creek, a tributary of the Murrumbidgee River. The nearest towns are Jerilderie and Deniliquin. The surrounding rural area consists of large sheep stations, including some Merino studs.

The Aboriginal name for the locality of Conargo was 'Gooriara', meaning "hopping" or "kangaroo ground". The actual town itself is quite small, with only a pub, a convenience store that sells fuel and a small number of houses, however the Shire now covers an area of approximately 8830 square kilometres and has a population of 1806. There are five nearby villages - Blighty, Mayrung, Pretty Pine, Wanganella and Booroorban.

Conargo is probably best known for bumper stickers issued by its pub, Conargo Hotel. The worldwide biggest Ute muster in neighbouring Deniliquin attracts thousands of Ute enthusiasts with many of them visiting this outback hotel.
