Attractions

Enrich your visit by allowing enough time for your students to explore these free attractions at the National Museum of Australia. We recommend at least an extra hour to explore all the Museum has to offer.

Circa

This is a rotating theatre that introduces the Museum's key themes of land, nation and people. There are four quadrants, each seating 29 people and loading at four-minute intervals. The total rotation time is 15 minutes.

NOTE: Circa will be closed until further notice to enable the installation of a new program. Please contact our bookings officer on phone
