Broken Hill is situated in the far west of New South Wales, approximately 50 kilometres from the South Australian border, and sits on the crossroads of the Barrier and Silver City Highways. As one of the longest active mining towns in Australia, Broken Hill was a major contributor to early mining innovation.

CMCA members can access unpowered sites for a low-cost of $15 per vehicle per night, while the general public can access unpowered sites at a rate of $25 per vehicle per night. Powered sites are available to everyone for a rate of $40 per vehicle per night. The event centre offers access to showers, bins, toilets and water.
