Details

Owned by multiple Golden Guitar winner Tom Curtain, Katherine Outback Experience provides a taste of the Australian outback right on the doorstep of town with real life horse-starting and working dog demonstrations, live music and humorous bush tales.

There is dust and chaos, and things don't always go to plan, but that's part of the beauty and charm of the outback as we know it.

There is something for everyone during the show. The kids love feeding the animals, whilst the adults are mesmerised by the team's horse and dog training knowledge, skill and patience. The show wouldn't be complete without some hilarious bush yarns and catchy Australian music from Tom's award winning albums.

Some free refreshments including cold water provided.

The Show is accessible to wheelchairs, walkers and prams. There is disabled parking close to the entry and ample parking space for oversized vehicles and caravans. There is a universally accessible toilet and shower and baby change table. The show is amplified. We are happy to consider other requests upon request. Please contact us direct.

The national award winning Katherine Outback Experience is owned by Australian Country Singer and Horseman, Tom Curtain. The Show offers a unique insight into life on Australian outback cattle stations, highlighting the important role of working dogs and horses in the pastoral industry. Working on outback cattle stations away from the modern comforts of TV and internet, inspired Tom to pen his first songs. He has since gone on to release five albums and enjoyed the success of Chart topping singles and albums. In 2018 he won two prestigious Golden Guitar Awards for his hit single Never Never Land. In 2023 he was inducted into the Tamworth Country Music Hands of Fame.

Tom’s passion for training animals, combined with his love of music inspired him to launch Katherine Outback Experience in 2013, providing guests with a sense of what goes on in the outback, often behind closed doors.

The Show includes real horse training and working dog demonstrations. Children are invited to interact with the station animals - some of which are unique to the outback. The show is in a constant state of evolution, with new animals and acts being introduced regularly. No two shows are the same.

An experience not to be missed that will leave you with a greater understanding and appreciation of the everyday men and women who live and work in the outback.
