Join us for the Annual Eastern Goldfields Miners Memorial at the Museum of the Goldfields.
Each year, we gather to honour the men and women who lost their lives in mining accidents across the Eastern Goldfields region since 1892. The Memorial Wall stands as a place of reflection, remembrance and respect, and a powerful reminder of why mine safety matters.
All are welcome to attend, pay their respects and stand with our community as we remember those who helped shape the Goldfields.

Memorial service: 9am to 10am
Morning tea: 10am to 11am in the Courtyard
Supported by the Museum of the Goldfields, Goldfields Esperance Development Commission, City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder and Western Australian Virtual Miners Memorial.
