The Northern Frontier Experience
Step beyond the tunnels and into the story of Australia’s most defining wartime moment. Beginning at the historic WWII Oil Storage Tunnels, this immersive, bookable tour takes you on a guided journey through the Bombing of Darwin, brought to life with light, sound, and augmented reality.
The tour covers 1km, from the WWII Tunnels to the USS Peary Memorial. From the depths of the tunnels, you will trace the events of 1942 as they unfolded across the city. Learn about the Northern Frontier from the place where history was made!
This is more than Darwin’s story. Through powerful storytelling, the experience connects Australia to the wider Pacific conflict, including the Fall of Java in Indonesia and the collapse of Allied defences across Southeast Asia. As the Dutch East Indies fell, the war moved south—placing Darwin on the frontline.
This immersive, multi-sensory experience blends history, technology, and place to deliver a unique perspective on the Northern Territory’s role in World War II; it launches as a bookable experience in 2026.
