LATES! The Beach Ball

Experience the museum (and the beach) at night with our first ever dedicated LATES! event.

LATES! transforms the museum into an after-hours summer escape, bringing the mood of a beachside night to Pyrmont. Explore exhibitions at your own pace, catch live performances along the boardwalk, and join mermaid-led mini tours that reimagine the museum after dark. The Lighthouse Gallery becomes the Copacabana Club for one night only, with a dynamic lineup of music, movement, and beach-inspired storytelling.

Expect summery cocktails, relaxed beach games, in-gallery artmaking, film screenings, drawing sessions, and a giant foam sandcastle build. The Ripples Fish & Chippery will be serving up all the beach classics - fish and chips, potato scallops, burgers with the lot, and retro ice-cream favourites.

Put on your surf wear, coconut bras, bucket hats and meet us on the sand at our city beach.

Full lineup announced soon!
