About

BBC Earth Experience - Exclusive to Melbourne

Travel the natural world and journey across the seven continents in one epic experience narrated by David Attenborough.

This immersive exhibition brings together state of the art audio visual technology and breathtaking footage from BBC Studios Seven Worlds, One Planet on an unrivalled scale.

From fireflies putting on a spectacular light show in North America, to snub nosed monkeys huddling together to stay warm in Asia, and cassowary fathers protecting their tiny chicks in Australia, visitors will get to experience our seven continents in all their glory, like never before.

The BBC EARTH EXPERIENCE is not to be missed.

The BBC Earth Experience will be temporarily closed from 29th February to 7th March due the MCEC hosting the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) summit.

We will reopen on 8th March and look forward to welcoming you then.

Please look out for the "BBC Earth Experience Cloakroom" signage to guide you.

The closest parking is at the South Wharf Retail DFO car park. We suggest you use 142 Normanby Street entry point for ease of access to this multi-level car park.

Check you are scanning the parking voucher, not your entry ticket. You do not need to enlarge the code and ensure your phone brightness is turned up.
