THE LEONORA GOLDEN GIFT
WA DAY LONG WEEKEND JUNE 1st & 2nd, 2024
A small outback town, elite athletes, $65,000 up for grabs, a bitumen street as the track. Combine this with a lawn bowls tournament, fireworks, market stalls, bands and street entertainment all weekend for the kids and you have yourself the outback experience that is Leonora's Golden Gift Carnival!
In it's 22nd year, the event features the iconic Elite Mile, Australia's richest mile running race along the dusty main street of Leonora. Along with athletics events for the whole family, concerts, fireworks, kids entertainment and activities, a lawn bowls tournament, market stalls and loads more, the 2024 Golden Gift is set to be one of the best ever!
Located 234km from Kalgoorlie, Leonora has a rich outback history and heritage, from the old world grandeur of the legendary State Hotel, to the simple charm of iron and hessian miners' cottages in the eerie gold rush ghost town of neighboring Gwalia. Come along for the day or the weekend, it's an experience like no other.
