Melbourne, are you ready to get frisky? A provocative new museum is opening on Saturday, December 7 and it seems like it’s going to be hotter than hell. The Museum of Desire will be an adults-only, multi-sensory space designed to celebrate all things love, pleasure, and yes, sex. 

When the venue opens there’ll be more than 25 spaces for 18-plus visitors to explore. It’s all in the name of flirty fun and switching up social norms around desire and sexuality. Expect a world where sex is art, and hopefully the art is sexy too…

We don’t yet know exactly what the museum will look like, but we have been given hints about a kissing booth, a ball pit full of boobs, a “giant neon vulva artwork” and projections from the Huxleys. 

Visitors who are feeling especially amorous will also be able to finger the ‘orgasm harp’ to a musical climax, or check out the ‘Confessions of a Photocopier’ installation for some office antics we wouldn’t recommend emulating in real life. 

Tickets for the Museum of Desire are now available via the website. Prices start from $33, so get ready for a museum like you’ve never seen before.
