Plan your visit at Geelong Sports Museum

The Geelong Sports Museum collaboration has given the Australian BMX Museum a fantastic opportunity to shine a light on Geelong's incredible contribution to BMX in Australia. This region has produced World Champions, passionate administrators, talented pro riders, and even played host to major international events. This showcase is really a celebration of the community spirit that has always powered BMX in Geelong — the dedicated people who have nurtured, supported, and grown the sport for decades. We've absolutely loved bringing this exhibition to life, and we hope visitors enjoy exploring it just as much as we've enjoyed creating it.
