About this experience

Sovereign Hill is a living museum telling the story of Ballarat as a gold rush town. Gold was discovered here in 1851, triggering the greatest alluvial gold rush the world has ever known.

What to expect

With your day admission ticket to Sovereign Hill, see a spectacular gold pour, take a guided underground gold mine tour and see the town by horse-drawn coach.

Shop 1850s style and visit hotels, schools and a Victorian Theatre. See massive mining machinery in action and chat with wheelwrights, candle makers and confectioners. Watch our industrial blacksmith smelt & pour a 100 ounce gold bar before your eyes and then try your luck in the diggings to strike it rich.

End the day and relax with a Devonshire tea in the New York Bakery.
