What is the Australian Jamboree? Well, it’s the biggest and best event in the Australian Scouting calendar… so big in fact, that it only runs every three years! The 2016 Australian Jamboree (or AJ2016) is the 24th Australian Jamboree, where over 12,000 Scouts will converge on Cataract Scout Park to camp for 2 glorious weeks of fun, fantastic adventure and friendship.

The 2016 Australian Jamboree will start on Sunday, 3rd January 2016 and finish on Wednesday, 13th January 2016.

AJ2016 will be held at the Cataract Scout Park located on the edge of Cataract Dam in New South Wales, Australia, with a number of activities including Amateur Radio.
