From July 1, regular opening days will change to 10am to 4pm on Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays to help preserve the place that tells an important chapter of Australia’s immigration story.
Help preserve your family’s migration journey and create a lasting legacy for future generations by adding it to an existing identity card in the online Bonegilla Identity Card and Memory Collection.
Inspired by the National Museum of Australia’s collection, this exhibition explores symbols that define Australia and its people. Now on exhibition in the Chapel — Building 91.
Set within the grounds of the original migrant camp, the historic buildings and peaceful surrounds of Bonegilla Migrant Experience offer flexible, specialised function spaces – to do business or gather with friends and family.
Help preserve a place of resilience, hope and new beginnings — for future generations to come. Your contribution helps preserve and share this legacy through heritage restoration, exhibitions and displays, tours and education programs.
Explore the original camp buildings, hear shared stories and truly walk in the shoes of the 320,000 migrants who made this their first Australian home.
During your visit follow the interactive Suitcase Trail, scan the QR codes and unlock an intimate and personal insight into camp life. Children can take the Discovery Challenge by completing the activity booklet.
Immerse yourself in the rich history of Bonegilla Migrant Experience.
