Join us for our biggest summer ever!

The gold rush is happening all over again this summer as part of our Sovereign Hill school holiday program.

This summer, Sovereign Hill is busier than it’s been since the 1850s gold rush. With NEW activities every day and the chance to win a $400 gold nugget every week, it feels like the gold rush is happening all over again.

Each day of the week, for six weeks, a different adventure awaits. View the full program here
