Discover the captivating story of Australia's oil and gas industry at The Big Rig Roma, a must-visit destination for history and energy enthusiasts alike.

Begin your journey at The Oil Patch Museum, where vintage equipment and early machinery transport you back to the industry's early days, while interactive displays provide a glimpse into its modern, multi-billion-dollar evolution.

Don't miss the newly opened Peter Keegan Museum, an impressive and engaging addition to the experience. After immersing yourself in history, take to the Big Rig Tower & Tree Walk for panoramic views of Roma and its surroundings, blending history with natural beauty.

For younger visitors, the Oil Patch Challenge offers an interactive adventure. With hard hats and timesheets in hand, kids can step into the role of junior oil tycoons, earning their share in the Mooga Oil Company. The Big Rig promises a day of fun, learning, and exploration for the whole family.
