Description

The Emu Gully Air and Land Spectacular is the largest and most accurate re-enactment of ANZAC history in Australia. The event is not about glorifying war, but about educating younger generations about Australia's military history.

It aims to communicate and inspire, now and into the future, the spirit of the ANZAC values of sacrifice, mateship, courage and perseverance.

At Emu Gully you will see the biggest collection of operating armoured fighting vehicles in Australia, together with what has been described as a world class air show.
