House Down Under

  • Family and kids
  • Entertainment

Flip your world on its head when you step inside House Down Under, the inverted house that appears to have dropped from the sky, Wizard of Oz style.

Limited only by your imagination, capture surreal and creative photo memories while having a laugh with family and friends. Feel on top of the world, walking (or dancing) on the ceilings, visiting a bathroom with an upside down toilet, exploring the inverted kids room, home office, entry way, lounge room, bedroom, kitchen area and more – all of these are upside down.

With your entry ticket you'll receive unlimited time, so can take unlimited photos on your own devices to remember your visit.

Opening hours are seasonal, so check socials before visiting.
