Payment is made at the Admissions Desk, Level G. You can pay by cash, EFTPOS or any credit card EXCEPT Diners Card. Card payments are only for amounts of AUS$10 and over. Australian Concession and Seniors cards must be shown at Admissions to receive the reduced rate admission charge.
For temporary exhibitions where admission charges apply you will be issued with a ticket. On extremely busy days you cannot re-enter these temporary exhibitions once you have left, but generally re-entry on the same day of purchasing your ticket is allowed, providing you show the ticket again.
There is no cloaking at the Australian Museum. You can leave bags in a locker for a $1 coin for up to four hours. These are located on Level G. The largest lockers will fit a backpack.
