Membership FAQs

CAN I “GIFT” A MEMBERSHIP?

YES, in fact the majority of GOLD PASSES purchased are actually bought as gifts!

When you’re purchasing either a GOLD PASS or WONDER CLUB membership, you can print the ‘welcome email’ (to pop in an envelope) or you can schedule a welcome email to be sent directly to your recipient during the checkout process. We can also change the membership details later (such as the email addresses); 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.

CAN I SHARE A MEMBERSHIP?

NO, memberships can’t be shared.

To ensure memberships can be offered at the most affordable price possible, they mustn’t be shared. It’s worth noting that a WONDER CLUB member only needs to return once to start saving money. And a GOLD PASS member that visits once a week will end the year with a average cost of entry of just $2.27!

Note: One specific name and photograph is associated with each membership. If our booking system identifies sharing of membership details, it will apply a non-refundable cancellation.

HOW IS A MEMBERSHIP PRICED?

The comparison table above clearly outlines how the two membership options are priced.

WONDER CLUB is very affordable to join and provides access to heavily discounted tickets. The GOLD PASS is a premium option that’s priced equivalent to ~5 casual visits, providing access to unlimited $0 entry – this option is a VERY popular option to gift because of the convenience in being able to book with no cost of entry for an entire year.

Note: Most Members visit 10-12 times per year, but you only need to visit TWICE to start unlock the amazing economic benefits of the WONDER CLUB!

CAN I ACCESS ALL THE MUSEUMS?

Yes. All the Memberships provide access to ALL our Museums, ALL year long. 

Most members live closer to one Museum than the others, and they’ll typically treat this location as their local hangout – and they’ll then utilise their all-access membership to meet up with friends on the other side of town, and explore the full Museum network.

SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE?

We think so too, but we promise – there’s no catch!

Whilst the GOLD PASS has been available at MoPA for many years, the WONDER CLUB is a new membership option we’ve designed to help families access more Museum experiences during these tougher economic times. Here at MoPA we can’t control inflation, fuel prices, taxes, interest rates or government policy – but we CAN work smarter and harder to make sure we’re balancing the quality learning experiences we’re famous for with the rapidly evolving macro-economic conditions.P

HOW MANY TIMES CAN A MEMBER VISIT?

There is no limit to how many times a Member can visit our Museums.

The only thing that we do ask is 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 twice in the year, a MoPA Membership represents exceptional value.

IS THERE A FAMILY MEMBERSHIP?

No, because families come in all shapes and sizes.

We received feedback that any cluster of tickets or memberships (such as 2+2) didn’t suit a lot of families. And so individual Membership packages are offered to 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, etc

HOW DO I BOOK USING MY MEMBERSHIP?

It’s super easy.

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 booking online, simply enter your Membership details at checkout.

Wonder Club tickets will automatically be reduced to the Member price of $6 per child and $4 per adult. Gold Pass tickets will automatically be reduced to $0.

Socials

Groceries, rent, fuel, bills, mortgages, interest rates… 

All household expenses are out. of. control. 

And as a result, the family outings that were once part of weekly routines are harder to fit into the budget than they ever been.

Regardless of how tough things get, we believe Australian families should NEVER have to sacrifice the amazing cultural experiences that enrich childhood. The zoo. The gallery. The Museum. Time with friends and family, out in our community, being creative, experiencing the world together.

While MoPA can’t control the cost of fuel, or interest rates, what we can do is innovate; create new ways to make our own cultural experiences as affordable as possible…
