HUNDREDS of locals turned out to the Mildura Station Homestead on Tuesday morning to celebrate Australia Day.

Around 300 attendees were treated to a free breakfast from the Mildura Lions Club and coffee from Common Ground as they enjoyed a performance from local acoustic duo Iwan and Andrea.

Mildura also welcomed two new citizens, hailing from Zimbabwe and Brazil, with Mayor Jason Modica presiding over a virtual ceremony later in the day.
