Scavenger hunt at the WA Army Museum

17 June 2026
Try Morse Code, hop aboard some military vehicles, and try on army uniforms. Can you lift a soldier's backpack?

Join us these school holidays for a fun, family-friendly adventure at the Army Museum. Young visitors can put their problem-solving skills to the test by decoding a Morse Code secret using clues hidden throughout the galleries or take part in a scavenger hunt to uncover fascinating items across the museum. There are also opportunities to climb aboard selected military vehicles, just look for the Green Hand symbol on the display boards.

Children under 17 receive free entry when accompanied by an adult, with general admission priced at $15 for adults. Families are encouraged to make a day of it. Bring along a picnic and enjoy our covered picnic area while soaking up the atmosphere. We look forward to welcoming you and thank you for your continued support.
