Ned Kelly's armour, displayed in a dimly lit corner of a stone room at the Old Melbourne Gaol.
10 May – 6 Jun

Ned Kelly's Last Stand: After Dark

  • Tour
  • Events

This after-dark tour retraces the final days of Ned Kelly, from his bloodied arrival after the siege at Glenrowan to the moment he climbed the gallows. With the Gaol cloaked in darkness, Kelly’s story takes on new intensity, revealing the fear, power, and politics that shaped his fate.

Hear the story of his controversial trial, the rushed defence, and the judge who was determined to see him hang. Walk the same path he took to the rope, stand inside the cell where he awaited his sentence, and uncover the secrets of what became of his body – and his skull – long after his execution.

Part history, part legend. This is a tour that doesn’t just tell the story, it asks you to decide: was Ned Kelly a killer or a symbol of resistance?
