Our emergency response team.

Mundiville is as big as many country towns. We build our emergency response team on years of experience at the remote Big Red Bash in Birdsville and other events across remote and rural Australia.

MedicalDoctors, nurses and first aiders with years of experience looking after people at remote events. A well-equipped on-site medical centre, supported by on-site paramedics from Ambulance NSW and the large hospital in Broken Hill.
FirefightingA stand-by team of qualified firefighters, current and past, from professional and volunteer fire services. They work from a dedicated fire truck, a large transport truck repurposed with 3,000 litres of water, a fire pump and full firefighting equipment. A nearby reservoir and extra tanker trucks provide backup water.
Security and policeAn experienced security team supported by NSW Police, brought in from Broken Hill and surrounding towns. During August the roads to the Bash are some of the most heavily patrolled Highway Patrol areas in the state, so there is no place for speeding or drink driving.

Experience you can trust

Built for remote events.

We work with experts from the surrounding district and our own professional crew to set up remote emergency services that are genuinely up to the task. Over many years we have built strong relationships with local health networks, ambulance services, hospitals and government agencies.

The Bash has a great track record. The crowd is there to have fun and look after each other. Most of our involvement with police is helping with lost children, the occasional lost adult, and encouraging safe driving on the way home.

Tip for families: write the child's name, the parent or carer's name, your CB radio channel and your phone number on the back of your child's wristband. If they get lost, it makes reuniting you much faster.

Bringing a pet?

Veterinary services.

There is no veterinary service on site at Mundiville. If your dog or other animal needs medical attention, you will need to travel to Broken Hill, where veterinary clinics operate.

Plan ahead if you are bringing a pet:

  • Bring any required medication
  • Make sure vaccinations are up to date
  • Monitor your dog for heat, stress or noise sensitivity
  • Be ready to take your animal to Broken Hill if needed
  • For urgent situations, call the hotline on 02 8852 5123 or reach the Control Room on CB Channel 5. They will help coordinate a safe departure from site
