If you think Melbourne Museum is a destination only for the pram-pushing set, think again.
For one night only on Thursday 1 March, Melbourne Museum is hosting SmartBar a summer pop-up bar that presents drinks and DJ tunes along with a dose of science and history, taxidermy and a dissection. Dazzle your friends with your wealth of knowledge, browse the Science and Life gallery exhibits after hours without tripping over toddlers or just enjoy a bar experience that’s a little bit different.

A limited number of tickets are available by phone 13 11 02 or online or you can enter this giveaway!
Thanks to Melbourne Museum, I have 2 x double passes to the SmartBar to give away. To win, all you have to do is leave a comment and the winners will be drawn randomly on Monday 27 February. Good luck!
6:00 PM – 10:00 PM

Drinking while learning, I can do that
Pick me please!!
Would love to go there. Thanks for the tip.
Sounds like a fantastic idea. I’d love to check it out.
Keep up the good work. Can always count on this blog to introduce me to new eateries in Melbourne and fun places to visit.
As a butterfly and animal obsessive from way back this sounds right up my alley…what a fantastic idea. Melbourne really is the arts capital of Australia!

geeking out with wine is actually my ideal evening out!

A night of lounging and poking sticks at quirky stuff. Sounds pretty interesting to me!

Cool! Smart people, animals and after work drinks all in the same place!
Drinks and taxidermy finally combined! Let me in!
Oooh butterflies & beer = delightful. pls count me in
You gotta be in it to win it! If it was up to me, EVERY pop-up bar should feature taxidermy and a dissection.
Thats so awesome! Would love to be apart of something like that, exactly the kind of break I need from work!
I’m part of the pram-pushing set that visits the Melbourne Museum, but would be more than happy to go just with hubby for once
