        FINALLY - The big (well, GIANT) reveal is less than 3 weeks away!

And after almost a full year in design and construction, we just can’t WAIT to show you all of what’s on offer at Melbourne’s new Children’s Museum.

Whilst we haven’t put tickets on sale yet, we HAVE opened bookings for Birthday Parties 🥳 Note: If you ARE keen to book a party, we recommend that you book at least 8-12 weeks in advance, because all our party availability does sell out.

        What does red sound like? Yellow smell like? Pink feel like? MoPA’s all-senses colour wheel is a beautiful introduction to abstract thinking for lil’ cuties. It’s a wondrous experience to share with your children (you can almost SEE their brains ticking away) and that’s why it’s 100% our fav… ONE of… our favourite exhibits. 😜🎨♥️
        Massive progress on the new Museum build this week. Just 4 weeks to go northsiders!! CAN’T WAIT!!
        Get ya spook on, baby!! 🎃👻 Halloween hits both MoPA Geelong AND MoPA Sandringham TOMORROW. 

We’re counting down to “trick-or-treat” with a ssssuper sssspooky sssstorytimes and THE cutest creepy critter craft you’ve ever seen. 👁️ 

ALL Halloween activities are included with ALL bookings and operating through ALL sessions from tomorrow (THU 24) right up ‘til Halloween (THU 31)! x 🕷️
        As of right… NOW, we have opened up bookings for Birthday Parties @ MoPA Thomastown. This means you can book a party for ANY date on or after Monday, the 2nd of December, 2024!! 

Sooo… If you’re hoping to secure a party booking at MoPA Thomastown, all you need to do is head over to mopa.com.au to lock it in. Please don’t worry if you don’t know EXACTLY how many guests you’re expecting to invite to the party; to secure the date, all you need to do is place a booking for the minimum number of guests (10) and we will confirm all the details later.

Annnd… We’re expecting all party time slots for DEC 2024 and early 2025 will sell out pretty quickly, so if you have a specific date in mind, we recommend that you secure that date early, before it gets snapped 🐊 up!
