The Friends Experience

  • Film
  • Exhibition

Fans of the hit television show Friends will be able to recreate their favourite scenes and celebrate some of the most iconic moments from the globally loved sitcom in this truly unique interactive experience.
​
Featuring a variety of nostalgia-packed, interactive recreated sets, including Monica’s kitchen and the iconic Friends fountain, this experience provides guests with plenty of opportunities to explore the show’s history and recreate their favourite scenes.

Of course, no Friends experience would be complete without paying homage to the sitcom’s famed coffee house, Central Perk, which will be fully recreated on-site complete with the legendary orange sofa. Fans will also be able to take home a memento of their visit from The Friends Experience shop where they will find a selection of exclusive merchandise.

Extended hours during school holidays, check socials.

The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection the Wurundjeri, Bunurong, Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung and Wadawurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin have to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We are committed to our reconciliation journey, because at its heart, reconciliation is about strengthening relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples, for the benefit of all Victorians.
