Australian Museum

The Australian Museum is Australia’s first museum. With a collection of international standing of more than 18 million objects, the Australian Museum is an icon that had been at the forefront of scientific research, collection and education for more than 190 years.  Located in the heart of Sydney's CBD, our mission is to inspire exploration, understanding and care for our world. 

Our truly unique venues inspire wonder as you explore breathtaking galleries and historic rooms, or enjoy panoramic vistas of the city and harbour from our modern roof top space.  The Museum is a place with rich history in the recognition and celebration of First Australian and Pacific cultures, and the natural environment, where you can celebrate among animals, minerals, dinosaurs and irreplaceable cultural and scientific treasurers. We can also add value to your event with gallery interpretation, expert talks, curated collection interactives, and behind the scenes VIP tours designed to suit your specific interests. There is no other venue like the Australian Museum for an unforgettable event.
