Relive the thrill of Australia’s historic gold rush through Aura, Sovereign Hill’s new sound and light show.
The new nighttime show is an immersive multi-sensory experience, featuring hundreds of projections over 26 hectares of the Sovereign Hill site. Starting with the Wadawurrung creation story, the show explores how the discovery of gold changed Ballarat forever. Think about it as if you were travelling back in time under the night sky.
The show was created in partnership between the Sovereign Hill’s historical experts and Andrew Walsh's Accolade event management team. These are the people behind the first four years of White Night, so you know you’re in for a treat.
