The Government have waived entry fees to Australian landmark locations such as Uluru, Kakadu and Booderee National Parks in their response to the Coronavirus.

Under the initiative, tourists will be able to visit these national parks without paying for a park pass which usually costs $65 for a three-day family pass.  

The decision will be funded out of a 1 million-dollar allocation that aims to boost tourism as part of the governments stimulus plan. 

Tourism Minister, Simon Birmingham says that tourism is the lifeblood of the communities in and surrounding these national parks and it is critical that this funding is allocated to boost visitor numbers to the areas hardest hit by the Coronavirus.

Traditional owners, who currently receive a portion of the park pass fees, will continue to be supported by the government.
