National Sports Museum
A sporting moment happens once. Never to be repeated. A split second in time, captured forever. They live in the minds of the people: who competed, who were there, and who pass their stories from generation to generation. They shape our collective view of ourselves, and our country. They become the blueprint for what we value and an inspiration for all.
The National Sports Museum, located within the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) celebrates the the contribution that sport has made within the development of our uniquely Australian culture.
The achievements of Australian sportsmen and women at all levels are showcased within an environment rich with sporting artefacts and interactive technology. Their stories and imagery represent the diversity of sports played within Australia for the first time within a single location.
Showcasing the great moments in Australia's sporting history, the museum will include a number of permanent and temporary exhibitions focused on Australian football, boxing, basketball, cricket, cycling, Olympic and Paralympic Games, soccer, tennis, rugby union and rugby league. Also included will be the MCG history, the Melbourne Cricket Club (MCC)Museum and an extensive interactive area for kids of all ages.
More than just a museum, it captures the spirit of Australian sporting life and relives the moments that have shaped Australia's rich sporting traditions and cultural heritage.
