The Australian Sports Commission’s leading interactive sports exhibit, Sportex, is undergoing an exciting refurbishment.

Snowboarding, canoeing and cycling are just some of the new displays that will be added with updates to existing displays also taking place.
Many visitors join an AIS Tour to experience Sportex and explore the world of high performance sport. These refurbishments will take this experience to the next level, making future visits even more immersive and memorable.
To bring these exciting new changes to life, parts of Sportex will be temporarily closed throughout 2025.
Tour groups already booked in during this time will be contacted outlining how their visit will be impacted.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience as we make Sportex an even more exciting place to visit.
Visitors can still book an AIS Tour and experience one of Canberra’s most popular tourist attractions.
While we work on the changes, we encourage you to stay connected through our website and social media channels, where we will share regular updates.
