UNEARTHED - A NIGHT AT EROMANGA

Unearthed: A Night at Eromanga will take place in the heart of the ‘Natural Sciences Loop’ at the extraordinary Eromanga Natural History Museum. This architecturally stunning facility, set within the Museum reserve, safeguards 95 million years of history and is home to one of the world’s largest dinosaurs, “Cooper.” Discovered by a local boy on his family’s property, Cooper’s find unveiled a treasure trove of bones, fossils and relics, illuminating the rich history and cultural heritage of the upper Murray/Darling and Lake Eyre/Cooper basins.

Join us for an enchanting evening featuring food on the lawn, engaging Science Talks with a local Geologist, guided Museum tours, and live music as the sun dips below the expansive horizon beyond the Museum reserve. Settle in for a performance by neo-country duo Bronson Diamond & Greta Stanley, whose chemistry channels the sharp-witted exchanges of iconic pairs like Johnny & June and Prine & DeMent. Their performance promises to be as extraordinary and unique as the location itself.

HOW TO GET THERE

To travel from Thargomindah to Eromanga, head 200 km west along the Cooper Developmental Road for about a 2-hour drive. Most of the road is sealed, but some sections may still be unsealed, so it's best to check current conditions with the Bulloo Shire Council, especially after rain. Ensure your vehicle is well-prepared, as fuel and services are limited along the route.
