Museum of Illusions Joburg

Prepare yourself for an experience of eye-opening, mind-bending, and non-stop fun. The world-renowned Museum of Illusions opened its doors in Joburg in July 2024, at The Zone @ Rosebank (buy your tickets here) and joined a network of more than 50 Museum of Illusions sites around the world.

Since the 2015 launch of the first Museum of Illusions in Zagreb, Croatia, this global phenomenon has welcomed more than a whopping 120 million visitors. Utterly innovative, The Museum of Illusions offers a unique and interactive experience that will challenge your perception, inspire creativity, and, provide a fun (and educational, for the more curious-minded) experience for visitors of all ages. It's pure play, something we all need more of, regardless of age or stage.

With a wide range of extraordinary exhibits, optical illusions, and hands-on displays, we think the Museum of Illusions is a must-visit destination. For centuries, optical illusions have fascinated people. It boggles the mind to think that your eyes can trick you into seeing something that's not really there. Museum of Illusions is designed to tease the senses and trick the mind, championing "edutainment,"  a deft weaving together of entertainment and learning.

This is the spot to visit whether you're looking for somewhere original to take a date, up for a one-of-a-kind adventure, want to keep the family enthralled or take the work colleagues somewhere to forget about office politics, you're an unstoppable Instagrammer, or simply looking for something different to do in Joburg. You'll be sharing the photographs long after your visit.

Note that prior booking is essential, and that Museum of Illusions is a cashless environment. A visit takes around 60 minutes.
