Current Closures and Maintenance

We occasionally need to close certain areas to perform checks and for maintenance work. Other times we are changing exhibitions or setting up for something new. Check here for any planned closures.

Where possible, we try to schedule maintenance work during quieter periods to minimise disruption to visitors. We apologise for any inconvenience to your plans.

CURRENT CLOSURES:

Please note: There will be no tram service on Sat and Sun, 14-15 March due to the expected volume of pedestrian traffic in the area for Pasifika 2026. Pasifika Vibes replaces our March LIVE Day. There will also be no train rides at Motions Road, instead, entry to the Aviation Hall is discounted to half price, and entry to lower MOTAT Great North Road is free and via Te Wai Ōrea Western Springs or Stadium Road. Here you'll find fun hands-on activities and performance in support of Pasifika 2026.

  • The Waitakere Station model railway is closed for maintenance.
