The Gold Coast is the favorite city in Australia for fun. It's where even Australians go for recreation and entertainment. While you are there be sure you don't miss Australian Outback Spectacular Gold Coast theme park.
Australian Outback Spectacular isn't exactly a theme park. You don't go on rides or get your picture taken with giant cartoon characters. It's an entirely different ind of experience.
You will find Australian Outback Spectacular conveniently located between Movie World and Wet and Wild. The location suggests that it is intended to be enjoyed in the same spirit as the theme parks and to fit into the theme park visitor's schedule.
Showtimes are nightly at 7:30 pm, from Tuesday to Sunday, the one exception being Christmas Day. By popular demand a Sunday Matinee lunch show at 12:30 has been added to the schedule as well as a 4:30 pm Saturday show on selected dates. Check for details when you order your tickets which you can do online.
The Outback Spectacular experience begins with an old fashioned barbecue supper. However if "dinner theatre" makes you think of bad actors doing Blythe Spirit in a small town diner this is definitely not that. The theatre is a actually an arena big enough for a cattle stampede and an audience of one thousand.
The venue was designed to suggest the architecture of barn or other Outback building. Heavy wood timbers suggest the ruggedness of the stockman's life. The sense of time and place is reinforced by old fashioned wagon wheel light fixtures and an entrance that is reached by way of a a bridge over a winding billabong.
The show itself is reminiscent of Buffalo Bill's Wild West show with elements of Star Wars. A huge cast of human and animal performers tell the story of life and conflict on the sheep and cattle stations of a bygone era. The set is landscaped to give the give audience a sense of being there and the illusion is aided by modern sound and light effects.
if you already saw Outback Spectacular once or a half dozen times you're in luck. The new Spectacular show tells the story of the famous Australian Light Horse and their connection to the pioneer stockmen of the Outback. The Light Horse were fighting troops who rode horseback like cavalry but fought on foot as infantry. The developed a style of warfare that was especially well suited to vast open landscapes.
The men of the Light Horse brigades usually came from the Outback where they had learned their horsemanship skills as stockmen on sheep and cattle stations. They were highly valued by the British whose wars they often supported. Their riding and shooting skills were said to be unequaled. And their level-headedness under fire was legendary.
The huge cast includes some of Australia's most outstanding stunt-riding horsemen and women. There is also a huge cast of animals including sheep, cattle, camels dogs and of course horses. The horses are especially selected from all over Australia and chosen for their particular talents and personalities. They are trained for parts in the show that they are most suited for and overall help to make a spectacular show even more spectacular.
