Finding the museum

The Motor Museum of Western Australia is in Whiteman Park, in the Swan Valley about 30 minutes from Perth’s city centre. Entry to the park is free.

• By car: there is plenty of free parking outside the museum, with ACROD bays near the entry.
• By train: Whiteman Park station on the Ellenbrook line serves the park; check the onward route to the museum with Transperth before you travel.
• Before arrival: leave time for the journey and entry checks so you are ready for your booked slot.

Useful stops along the way

Facilities can change through the year. Visitors can usually expect:

• Accessible toilets in Ricciardo Hall.
• A free wheelchair on request.
• Volunteer-led tours of about 45 minutes, when volunteers are available.
• A café right next door in Whiteman Park.

Leave time for Whiteman Park around the museum, which is free to enter. Ask staff about current arrangements when you arrive.

A visit that works for you

All areas of the museum are accessible, with a ramp in Brockwell Hall, accessible toilets in Ricciardo Hall and a free wheelchair on request. Assistance animals are welcome. There is no hearing loop or audio guide.

• Check arrangements for your particular mobility or access needs before travelling.
• If you are bringing a stroller, confirm the current arrangements before arrival.
• Ask museum staff for assistance or directions during your visit.

Enjoy the museum thoughtfully

• Keep to the visitor paths, walk rather than run, and supervise children.
• Keep behind the barriers, leave the cars untouched and follow the volunteers’ guidance.
• Smoking and animals are not permitted on the site.
• Commercial photography and filming, including product promotion, need permission.
• Follow the signs and staff guidance, including any restrictions in the exhibition spaces.

A little care helps protect the collection for everyone.

Make time for a pause

There is a café right next door to the museum in Whiteman Park.

• Stop for breakfast, lunch, a hot drink or refreshments nearby.
• Leave room in your plans to sit down and enjoy the setting.
• Check opening hours and menus on the day; food and drinks are purchased separately.

If you leave for a break and plan to come back the same day, ask the front counter for a stamp.

A few details worth planning

• Book ahead: choose the date, time and places you want to visit before making other plans.
• Keep your QR ticket ready: save it on your phone or bring a printed copy, with any proof needed for reduced admission.
• Start in the right place: go to the front counter at the museum entrance and show your ticket there.
• Dress for exploring: comfortable shoes and a charged phone make the day easier.
• Leave space to linger: leave time for a volunteer-led tour if one is running, and for Whiteman Park outside.
