The Kalgoorlie Goldfields Visitor Centre is situated in the stunning and majestic Kalgoorlie Town Hall.
The ever busy Visitor Centre attracts in excess of 130,000 people through the doors every year. Priding itself on quality customer service, the experience commences upon entering the centre, with friendly staff greeting you, or answering your phone call or replying to your email. Even the prominent signage lets you know where we are.
As you walk up the steps to this more than 100 year old historic building, we are found on the left through the grand double doors where the bright and spacious surrounds await you and the warm and friendly smile of one of us greets you.
We are here to provide you, our valued visitors, with all the up to date information on Kalgoorlie and the Goldfields and stack an extensive array of brochures, not only from our region, but from all over the state. All visitors are also more than welcome to take a seat in front of the authentic ornamental fire place in the one hundred year old original Council Chamber Chairs as you peruse all the reading material we have available. We even serve tea and coffee, a welcome relief as many visitors have had a long drive. All the while, our visitors are situated nearby to the friendly and knowledgeable staff who can assist with any queries as they arise. You will be so comfortable you will not want to leave!
