Tūhura Celebrating 149 years Tomorrow!

By Administration | Posted: Thursday July 30, 2026

We're celebrating Tūhura's 149th Birthday tomorrow with a massive Community Day, featuring live performances, science shows, face painting, a bouncy castle, games, and loads of family fun.

Science Centre and Planetarium tickets are just $10 for both adults and children for the day, and every dollar raised will go towards replacing the Tropical Forest roof.

We'd love to see as many families as possible come along and celebrate with us while supporting a great cause.

Thanks so much for your support, and have a fantastic weekend!
