We're looking forward to welcoming you back!

The Team from Auckland Museum

We're pleased to announce that today our doors are open again at 10am and we're looking forward to welcoming you back!

As you will expect, we’ll be implementing a lot of procedures to keep you, our communities and our people safe. We have introduced contact tracing, increased cleaning, hand sanitisers and ways to help with social distancing.

We're also excited to announce that the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition will be open, as we’ve been able to extend it for a limited time. Weird and Wonderful, the Volcanoes Gallery and the Kai Room, unfortunately, won’t be opening for the time being as they are high touch spaces.

Please take a quick look at our website before you visit to help plan your trip.

See you soon!
