Details

Sovereign Hill's official ticket page describes AURA as a 90-minute ticketed night show inside the Sovereign Hill site, using projection, theatres and outdoor sections to tell the story of gold, Wadawurrung creation story context and the Eureka Rebellion. Places are limited and pre-booking is required, with performances across the week and nightly during Victorian school holidays. Show times vary by season, visitors are asked to arrive 15 minutes early, and late admission can miss the first section. The source says the show runs in most weather, includes some open-air sections, touring vehicles between locations, wheelchair-friendly access with ramps and vehicle lift support, and no prams on the show vehicles, so it is useful for visitors planning a separate evening experience rather than a standard daytime Sovereign Hill visit.
