The Australian Venture is an event for Australian Venturer Scouts. It is their equivalent of a Jamboree, but for Venturers there is a lot more freedom and latitude in what they do. There is a number of on site activities and also an off site expedition, normally totaling about 12 days long.

The last Australian Venture was in South Australia 2015. The theme for this Venture was "Heaps Good SA" and it was the 16th Australian Venture.
