Information

Life size replica of Donald Campbell's K7 Bluebird. The Dumbleyung community fundraised to build the replica in time to celebrate the 50th anniversary on December 31, 2014.

At night the Bluebird replica is lit with blue lighting and lights in the roof set out as the Southern Cross start constellation.

The Bluebird Interpretive Centre is housed within the Community Resource Centre across the road and is a tribute to the late Donald Campbell and his 1964 World Water Speed Record on Lake Dumbleyung. The Interpretive Centre includes a feature wall of Donald Campbell, a number of story boards, memorabilia, and merchandise from the 50th Anniversary.

Viewing of the Bluebird Interpretive Display and Bluebird replica are free of charge.
