From a place you know comes a story you don’t — AURA immerses you in the story of gold in a 90 minute high impact, graphic presentation which explores the creation, discovery and impact of the precious metal then and now.

You will never see gold the same way after AURA.

Under cover of darkness travel across our sprawling site, AURA transforms Sovereign Hill into a moving theatre with hundreds of hi-tech projections telling our story.

The Wadawurrung creation story unfolds and soars into the skies over Sovereign Hill's lake. The gritty story of gold along with rebellion, gunfights, triumphs, and tragedies will draw you into the drama of history.

Acknowledgement of Country

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
