SNEAK PEEK
Set inside one of Geelong’s most charming buildings (c1962) the Geelong Museum spans two levels, a generous rear garden, and a central fully-licensed cafe. Peninsula locals and the 25,000+ tourists that visit each year all agree; MoPA Geelong truly is one of the worlds most beautiful Children’s Museums.
Car parking is available on McKillop Street, at the Museum’s doorstep. Nearby streets also offer unrestricted parking on weekends and 2 to 4 hour parking from Monday to Friday.
Accessibility
MoPA Geelong enjoys good accessibly with ramped access from front to back, accessible bathrooms, accessible change rooms, and additional portable ramps on site. The beautiful old building does feature a mezzanine level, accessible via stairs only, though this area represents just 15% of the total experience. Generous seating is also provided throughout the Geelong Museum, both inside and out.

Best video of the year…. LOVE this so much. And LOVE seeing soooooo many grandparents at MoPA. 3 weeks left of FREE GRANDPARENTS — Don’t miss out!! x ❤️
All grandparents are FREE at MoPA until the end of February… Even Gran-ma (with no “D”!!). Cutest vid ever. More of this papa gold to come… STAY TUNED!
❤️ SOUND ON 😭 (Ready for happy tears?): “Until I became a grandparent I didn’t understand the love, and just the emotion…”
Grandparents are free at MoPA this summer (3 weeks to go!!) and it has hands-down been the most beautiful environment in the Museums all summer long. The most special part of this time is that what we’re seeing most is 3-generations — all creating beautiful memories together. Grandparents are just visiting with the kiddlybites — it’s a full family affair.
MoPA turned 6 years old this week and we decided that instead of throwing a party for ourselves to celebrate, it feels muuuuch nicer to help YOU have a party at MoPA instead!
Here’s how it works:
❤️ You can book the party for any date this year, so long as the booking is placed this week ❤️ $100 discount will be applied at the checkout when you use the discount code LOVE2PARTY ❤️ If you need to move the party date 6-8 weeks prior to when it’s booked for, just give us a call - we’ll shuffle it around for you, no problems at all!
Yep. It’s official — STICKER SUNNIES is our most popular activation ever!! And the best bit? It runs for 5 five FIVE more weeks; right up until the end of FEB. AND YES Grandparents are free for this entire summer season too. So… Yeah… Just sayin’… You do NOT wanna miss this!! xx 😘
Why? Because we are celebrating these special humans and the priceless role they play in our children’s development. You ROCK Yaya, and Bubbe, Babushka, Nonnie, Nana, Gran, and おじい 5₺h, Mimi, Meemaw, Nene, Gigi, Glam, Pa, Zayde, Pop, Babu, 4743, and Grandad, Gramps, Abuel; we’ll see you all soon!! 🕺🥳😍
