MoPA Gift Cards can be used to purchase anything at MoPA, including tickets, memberships, parties, coffees, food and more. To ensure your recipient enjoys the maximum value possible, MoPA Gift Cards last for 3-years and can be used across any number of separate purchases!
Option 1: Digital Gift Card
Purchase a digital gift card right now, online! Add a personalised message and email the details directly to yourself (to print out, or forward to your recipient), or use our system to schedule an email that will deliver the gift card directly to your recipient!
NOTE: If you change your mind, and decide that you would prefer a physical gift card, you are VERY welcome to swing past the Museum to pick one up later. There is no cost, and all the numbers & receipts will still match!
If you’d prefer to tie your gift card up in a bow, why not drop into one of our Museums to grab a physical Gift Card; the card designs are regularly updated and are a good option for those wanting to wrap something up!
Please rest assured that gift cards purchased for MoPA Thomastown can ALSO be used at other MoPA locations! The only difference between purchasing your gift card from one location versus another is that your gift-card will work through the online checkout for the location it’s purchased from, but manually (via a quick phone call or email) from any alternative MoPA location.

TODAY IS THE DAY!! Tickets for MoPA Nunawading are AVAILABLE NOW!! Yeeeehahhhh!!
Don’t miss out — Book in NOW for Play, Parties, Excursions, Takeovers and more — dates are available to book from Monday, October 6, 2025.
Those who know MoPA well also know that we cap attendance numbers to all sessions, to keep the numbers at all our Museum’s at a super comfortable level — this ensures every visit is safe and comfy, but it also enables us to provide the richest possible learning experience… It ALSO means that most days sell out. At Nunawading, already, all October Birthday Parties are almost sold out, Term 4 Excursions are 75% sold out, and Play Sessions for the first few weeks are [as of today] going to go book up really quickly, too!!
Almost an entire year in the making = MoPA Nunawading is suuuuch a beautiful Children’s Museum. We just can’t WAIT to show you all around!! 🎉🎨🚗🥳❤️
That’s right! Monster Madness is BACK and it’s showing from Monday Sep 8 until Sunday Oct 5.
This SuPeR sCaRy (not!) puppet making activity has been a huge hit with our little learners; probably because it encourages children to streeeeetch their already incredible imaginations. It also happens to be a brilliant opportunity to work on those all-important problem solving and fine-motor skills - with lots of colouring, testing, changing, cutting and pasting.
All guests to all our Museums are invited to use the materials and media provided to dream up a unique monster-osity. And as always, all our activities are included in the ticket price. We can’t wait to see all your gorgeous creations!!
Make something super special for Dad (and all the important people in your life!) at MoPA this week. This gorgeous activation is available at all our Museum’s and runs right up until Fathers Day!! x
One of the most beautiful things about human existence is that every single one of us is different. To help celebrate what makes your children the unique creature they are, in the true spirit of book week, please join us from Aug 18 to Aug 31 to write and illustrate your very own “Book About Me” ❤️
The design and construction of our Adelaide Children’s Museum is already underway and we could NOT be more excited for our next Museum to be opening in the beautiful state of South Australia!!
Loads of deets to follow. Sign up for updates on our interwebs! See you soon SA!!!! xx
