Bags the top hat!
If you’ve often harboured fantasies of becoming a real estate mogul, but you can’t seem to find a way around those darn Aussie property prices, we have good news: There’s a Monopoly theme park coming to Melbourne.
Monopoly Dreams is a $20 million indoor theme park based around the board game, and it’s slated to open in Melbourne Central in late 2022.

The Melbourne attraction will be only the second Monopoly Dreams theme park in the world. The original opened in Hong Kong back in October of 2019.
Split into two sections, Monopoly City and Monopoly Mansion, the theme park will span a total of 15 attractions, and is expected to attract some 600,000 people annually.

The Monopoly City portion of the theme park will be based on the Melbourne city layout, even incorporating trams and aesthetically pleasing street art. Guests will enter by passing ‘Go’ (obviously) via an illuminated passageway and compete to roll a double with enormous dice.

There’ll also be plenty of other Monopoly themed attractions, including Mr Monopoly’s mansion (complete with giant gold helicopter), a 4D theatre that will bring the Monopoly railway to life, interactive versions of the Water Works, Bank and Electric Company, and an IRL Chance wheel where you’ll be able to nab prizes.

It’s expected that ticket prices will be aimed at families, with estimates putting the cost at $30-40.
Monopoly Dreams is slated to open at Melbourne Central later this year.
