Blood on the Southern Cross

'Blood on the Southern Cross' is an explosive multi-million dollar sound-and-light show like nothing you've ever seen before. The story of the Eureka Rebellion, a dramatic battle between gold miners and Government forces at Ballarat on 3 December, 1854, is retold nightly by 'Blood on the Southern Cross', Sovereign Hill's acclaimed sound-and-light spectacular. Set under the night skies at Sovereign Hill, 'Blood on the Southern Cross' involves no actors - just voices, dazzling sound-and-light effects and a stunning open-air set. Visitors travel across the site on a comfortable transporter and view much of the action from the re-created Free Trade Hotel on the Eureka Diggings.
