The largest museum of its kind in Australia, the Gold Coast Wax Museum is home to over 110 life-size wax figures that you'll have to look twice at! Featuring a range of exhibits including copies of British Crown Jewels and dioramas depicting Australia's history.Visited by thousands every year, the realistic wax figures and their authentic costumes gives you the chance to meet a range of famous and important people from Queensland, Australia and around the word.

Be sure to bring your camera as you're likely to spot some celebrities including Michael Jackson, Miley Cyrus, Johnny Depp and Kylie Minogue as well as some political figures including former Australian PM's Bob Hawke and John Howard, US President Barack Obama, Former US President John F. Kennedy and even members of the Royal Family.

The Gold Coast Wax Museum contains figures which have been crafted by leading local and overseas sculptors to international standards, equal in quality to the world's best, as seen in Europe, the United Kingdom, and U.S.A. The incredibly intricate detail in the figures is amazing - and includes hair applied one strand at a time, requiring many working hours for one hand, and the eyes so anatomically real they seem to follow the viewer around.

This painstaking work takes two and a half years, with each figure valued at $60,000 plus. Bring your sense of adventure and your camera and see something exciting and quite unique. Buy tickets for the Gold Coast Wax Museum in Surfers Paradise here.

Was an okay visit needs a bit of an update, the tour guide was great and informative

It was an okay visit. If you've done it once you don't need to visit again. Chamber of Horrors had a great guide with some good information but needs a bit of a revamp... would have liked to buy a magnet for a souvenir but didn't have anything but postcards to buy.

Cute little out of the box idea for something to do in Surfers Paradise.

Took my 3yo to experience this attraction as we are Gold Coast locals and we always pass the Wax Museum face on the bus going into Surfers Paradise. Having lived on the Gold Coast for 20+ years, I had never been to this attraction but I rated it as an out of the box idea as something different to do on the Gold Coast. Was great to walk through and see people past and present from different eras of life.

Wax museum - a little outdated, friendly service.

Friendly service and interesting wax sculptures. A little outdated but still interested to look at. The tour below was really interesting and it was interesting to see and learn about all the stuff that was below. Probably wouldn’t go back again but great to go and look around as a time filler.

Good experience. Awesome museum. Great tour, staff very knowledgeable.

Good experience. Wow! Famous faces and others to discover. Staff very knowledgeable about large collection of authentic wax figures and the gruesome and gory Torture Chamber. One of the last real wax museums. If you get a chance—go to the Wax Museum!

Great time killer and interesting informative 👍 👌

Wasn't quite as big as the Sydney one we visited but still interesting. The downstairs torture house of horrors was a bit scary for our youngest (7 year old). The rest of us found it interesting and informative. Our tour guide was amazing, clearly someone that likes his job a lot!

Such an interesting and unusual family activity,

The wax sculptures were amazing, the workers definitely made the experience they are very knowledgeable and welcoming, unfortunately, our kids weren’t interested in this activity however I’m glad we spent the time here it was unlike anything we’ve seen before.

A must see on your list of attractions to visit on the Gold Coast.

Definitely a place worth visiting if you are holidaying on the Gold Coast. I was surprised at how much there is to see in the Museum. The staff were very informative, especially on the guided tour. We would rate this as one of the top places in Surfers Paradise to visit and will definitely recommend this place to others.

Really cool for people interested in the past and the ways they use to execute people for bad behaviour but for me myself I am more modern and enjoy more modern attractions

Really cool for people interested in the past and the ways they use to execute people for bad behaviour but for me myself I am more modern and enjoy more modern attractions. But it was still really cool and worth the money. My girlfriend really enjoyed it.
