Themed Event
Get those feet tapping to the sounds of a bush band; enjoy unique country style hospitality at historic Emu Bottom Homestead, situated 35 minutes from Melbourne (15 minutes from Melbourne Airport). 

Emu Bottom Homestead specializes in corporate, international and incentive group events.  The property is offered to you exclusively to conduct whatever occasion you wish.  We can assist with ideas and organize everything you need to ensure your event is an outstanding success.  One of our most celebrated events is a ‘Taste of Australia’:

There was movement at the homestead, for the word had passed around that  drovers on horseback ‘with whips a’cracking’ were riding through the bush and scrub to meet you.  There are mugs of billy tea to sip by the glow of the campfires and time to watch the sheepdogs work their magic; see a shearer shear a sheep from ‘brisket to the nose’.  Learn to throw a boomerang, play a gumleaf and win a game or two of ‘Two Up’ until you hear the haunting sounds of a didjeridoo introducing the arrival of the Aboriginal dancers.  Dinner is served in an authentic red gum woolshed.  It’s time to kick up your heels on the dance floor to the strains of a rollicking bush band.    

This is just a glimpse of what our ‘Taste of Australia’ can offer.  Talk to us about our other programs or how we can tailor-make an event to suit your specific interest, budget and tastes.

‘Our overseas guests were amazed and charmed by the truly Australian experience they had at Emu Bottom Homestead. We started bringing our international guests to Emu Bottom Homestead years ago and it never fails to impress and delight. Keep up the great work!’
