SNEAK PEEK
Spanning an impressive 2,500sqm, MoPA Sandringham houses a huge array of experiences and exhibits centred around an all-senses immersive colour wheel. You’ll find plentiful exhibit spaces, activations in every nook, craft rooms, an immersive cinema, the worlds largest soft play area, a six-meter high ‘miniature city’, and dance parties around the main stage.
More than 200 shared car parks are available on site. We do anticipate some busy days at MoPA Sandringham, and at these times you may find the carpark quite full. When this does occur, please rest assured that the streets nearby offer lots of unrestricted parking options.
Accessibility
The Sandringham Museum is a single-level building with accessible car parking less than ten meters from the entrance, ramped access throughout, generous accessible bathrooms and change rooms, plentiful seating, and additional portable ramps on site for the more ambitious explorers that may wish to hop up on stage for a dance.

What do we want? BOOK WEEK! When do we want it? BOOK WEEK!
(Starts SAT 22nd August @ MoPA)
Reading books to our children, seeing them learn to read by themselves, and then watching their passion for learning through books develop, are among the most magical moments of raising children. This week we celebrate all of this magic and more. Dress up, read with us, and MAKE YOUR VERY OWN BOOK!!! Yasssss!!!
