The classic board game that we all have memories of (both the wholesome family fun and table-flipping fights) now has a theme park wonderland in Melbourne, where you can relive all the fun – minus the sibling rivalry.
Monopoly Dreams will celebrate the best-selling game with a one-of-a-kind immersive entertainment experience in the heart of the CBD. It's the world's largest Monopoly-themed attraction, and will take you on a nostalgic journey through the world of Mr. Monopoly, where reality and the game become one.
After much anticipation, the $20-million, 1650-square-metre indoor park officially opened on November 15 at Melbourne Central. The park is only the second of its kind in the world, and it'll be twice the size of the original location that landed in Hong Kong back in 2019.
The theme park experience will feature famous landmarks, iconic characters and exciting challenges that hopefully won't cause as much family tension as going bankrupt in the board game.
After passing go at the entrance, visitors will get to explore two distinct areas: Monopoly City and Monopoly Mansion. Across the two zones, which are inspired by Melbourne and feature trams and street art, there will be a total of 15 attractions, including a 4D theatre and a chance wheel. Punters can win Monopoly money that can then be spent at the park's café or retail store.
“Our team has worked tirelessly to create an immersive experience that captures the
essence of Monopoly and transports guests into a magical world of excitement and
imagination," says Monopoly Dreams general manager Mark Connolly.
You can book your tickets here, with prices at $49.50 for an adult pass or $38.50 for children.
