The day will be held on Saturday, April 6 from 8.30am-2:30pm, with buses leaving every 10 minutes from Blayney, including disability tours.
Cadia Valley Operations general manager Peter Sharpe said a separate tour would be conducted to the Blayney Dewatering Facility, the final stage of ore processing.
"This facility was opened in 2016 and has not been opened to the public before," he said.
The tour will include surface and underground machinery displays, a heavy vehicle workshop in action and panoramic views of Cadia Open Pit.
Tickets are available for a gold coin donation here or from Orange Visitor Information Centre.
All funds raised from the event will be matched dollar for Dollar by Newcrest and will be donated to CanAssist Blayney.
All visitors must abide by a zero alcohol and drug limit and must wear long trousers, enclosed shoes and a sleeved shirt.
