Namesake
Bathurst, located in the Central Tablelands of New South Wales, is renowned for its rich history and vibrant cultural scene. Established in 1815, it holds the title of Australia’s oldest inland settlement. Today, Bathurst is best known for the Bathurst 1000, an annual motorsport event that attracts thousands of racing enthusiasts. Held at the iconic Mount Panorama Circuit, this race is a pinnacle event in the Supercars Championship, featuring a grueling 1000-kilometer endurance race that tests both drivers and their vehicles. The event transforms the town into a bustling hub of activity, drawing visitors from across the globe.
The Bathurst region is the traditional land of the Wiradjuri people, who have lived in the area for thousands of years. The Wiradjuri are one of the largest Aboriginal groups in New South Wales, known for their deep connection to the land, rivers, and natural resources. Their culture is rich with traditions, stories, and practices that have been passed down through generations. The Wiradjuri people have a profound spiritual connection to the land, which they refer to as "Ngurambang," meaning "home." Today, the Wiradjuri continue to play a vital role in the community, preserving their heritage and contributing to the cultural tapestry of the Bathurst region.
