Over 5,000 Visitors have now joined the MoPA Community as Members. WHY? Because Members enjoy UNLIMITED free play sessions + 10% off at the Gift Shop
A MoPA Membership is designed to make it more viable for you to visit more often. With Memberships priced at less than 5 casual visits, you can be sure that even if you’re only able to visit a handful of times you’ll still find great value.

Membership FAQs
How many times can a Member visit?
There is no limit to how many times a Member can visit the Museum, we only ask that members attend just once per day – in fairness to other guests that may wish to attend on the same day as you! Some members attend weekly, others every other month. Whether you attend 50+ or just 5 times in the year, a Membership represents exceptional value.
How is a Membership priced?
To ensure that anyone can get great value from their Membership, the packages are priced at less than 5 casual visits in a peak period. Most Members visit 10-12 times per year, but you needn’t visit more than a handful of times to unlock the economic benefits of being a Member.
Can I share a Membership?
No. It is not viable for MoPA to offer any kind of shared Memberships. Instead, the packages are priced very competitively, so that anyone with a membership only needs to visit a handful of times to get great value. Some members find that if a child is attending MoPA often, but their carer may be different on different days, it works better for the child to have a Membership but for the adults to purchase casual tickets each time. When the booking system identifies any sharing of membership details it will apply a non-refundable cancellation to that membership
Is there a Family Membership?
No there isn’t. Families come in all shapes and sizes and so individual Membership packages are offered that allow you to purchase Memberships for only those in your family that will find the value; be that a child, a single parent, a grandparent, a regular carer, and so on.
Can I “gift” a Membership?
Yes. In fact many of our Memberships are gifted to lucky recipients! Our website will trigger a ‘welcome email’ when you purchase the membership that you plan to gift, so please remember that if you’d like the gift to be a big surprise you should use your own email address when you buy the membership for someone else, and then we can change it (the email address) over to your recipients email later – It’s really a very easy process managed by our Guest Services Team who are available 7-days a week on 1800 00 66 72.
How do I book using my Membership?
As we have ‘comfy capacity’ limits set in place for all our sessions, we request that all our Members book their visit online before arrival. This ensures you have a spot saved when you arrive at the door and don’t miss out due to private functions, excursions or sold-out sessions! When you book, simply pop your Membership number/s in at the payment screen and the Free Play ticket price for Members will be reduced to $0.
