- Giuseppe SpinaFebruary 19, 2015Definitely worth a trip when you visit Melbourne but there's always temporary exhibits coming to keep it fresh. I wouldn't waste money throwing it into the fountain out the front. Send it my wayUpvoted Mar 12
- James WilsonDecember 23, 2014The Joseph Brown collection at the NGV: Australia is absolutely spectacular. All the best names in Australian art over the past two centuries, all in the same place, completely free of charge!Upvoted 3 days ago
- Rebekah V.January 2, 2014Terrific art museum! Check out the Salon Room: room full of paintings, and Japanese art and Chinese burial practices. Probably the best museum in Melbourne. Excellent looseleaf tea in The Tea Room.
- Tomek WolnyMarch 13, 2016Ai WeiWei &Andy Warhol exhibit was worth doing. Plenty of interaction, you get out of it what you put into it. Whole complex is well organised by the layout of the 15-18th stuff needs to be refreshed.Upvoted 1 day ago
- Lisa StarbucksOctober 17, 2018Start at the top with the most interesting contemporary art pieces. The lower floors are classic religious / portraits / tableware.
- Josef HerbertApril 13, 2015Beautiful gallery filled with amazing art from periods across many centuries. Whether you're a local or just visiting, this is a gallery worth visiting. Make sure you out the temporary exhibits
- Kanji IshiwaraMarch 5, 2019Awesome museum. Many free exhibits spanning different civilizations and cultures. The Escher and nendo exhibit is worth checking out!
- Raluca BastucescuMay 18, 2016I love what the have on at the moment and the fact that most of the gallery is free. A few exhibitions you had to pay a fee of $12 - it's all worth it for the art.
- Open House MelbourneJuly 16, 2013A major work by architect Roy Grounds, the National Gallery Of Victoria features a 4 storey high hall and multi-coloured roof by Leonard French #LoveOHM
- The permanent collection is really worth checking out too (even if they have great touring exhibitions).
- Often crowded in a good way. This gallery is Victoria’s premiere exhibition space combing contemporary art with historical works a great place to lose yourself for an hour or six.
- Jessie SJuly 9, 2015My favourite gallery. Great atmosphere, constant exhibits, lovely areas to hang out (make sure you check out the back gardens) and attentive friendly staff.
- Monica FulcoNovember 1, 2017Saw the Hokusai exhibit, loved every bit. The NGV is a great way to spend an evening or weekend, with fantastic exhibitions constantly on display 👍🏼
- Kyle GJanuary 5, 2016The featured exhibit was $26 but it was weiwei and Warhol so it was worth it. Very cool back yard with music, comfy chairs, weird sculptures and beer!
- Tara CatherineFebruary 15, 2015Sunday sessions in summertime here are the best and free!! With well known bands. 😉 #cider #goodmusic what more do you need.
- Taz (✿╹◡╹)November 18, 2018Always great art selection and temporary exhibition. Nice to sit near the fountain to enjoy the sun.
- Chloe TiaraJune 8, 2016There is always something for everyone to do. Fun games for children and amazing exhibitions for adults. Never gets boring!
- Members room is a great place for a quiet catchup with a friend after, before, during or even when not viewing! Free tea and coffee (not instant!) and guest comes in free with member.
- John AMarch 13, 2016Impressive gallery space. Interesting permanent collection... High quality traveling exhibition like Warhol & WeiWei
- Shane PlossuMarch 19, 2013Be sure to take the time to read all the historical references in the Chinese Burial Exhibit. The stories add so much to the experience (as does the amazing timeline at the entrance).
- Sigrid de CastellaAugust 4, 2022Exhibitions are often unreasonably (and irresponsibly) crowded so bring your mask. Many of the (free) permanent exhibitions are at the Fed Square area not St Kilda Rd.
- Matthew TilleardDecember 27, 2013The oldest public art museum in Australia. Striking understated architecture and a substantial collection of Australian and international art. People have stolen Picassos here.
- Sandra BensoussanFebruary 1, 2016Always some good exhibition going on there ! Recommend to rent the guided audio ! Makes everything much better !
- Joao FerreiraApril 14, 2017The free tours are totally worth it, you'll learn some of the history of Melbourne & Victoria by a super enthusiastic guide.
- Jeff RonnerJanuary 13, 2016Andy Warhol and Ai Weiwei exhibit was intense. Come early and plan a few minutes for a mental break between halls.
- Great art collection from traditional to modern arts they have it all...
- JoannaFebruary 25, 2016Always interesting exhibitions with great audio guides. Check out Warhol - Wei Wei before it closes down on 24 April 2016.
- Stephen WeberDecember 1, 2013With the exception of some temporary exhibits, NGV is free to visit as often as you like.
- Lots for kids, great stuff tucked away up stairs too. Well worth the visit for the free exhibits alone.
- InterContinental Hotels & ResortsMarch 21, 2013Take time to visit the exceptional National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) Australia. This public gallery houses an extensive Aboriginal and Australian fine art collection. Read more

- Viet Ha Tran PhamNovember 26, 2014Cool exhibitions going all year round. Cool looking security guys :))

- Ahn BustamanteMarch 28, 2015Great art selection, it's a worthwhile visit. I also like the structure itself.
- Great all round art gallery, top floor excellent contemporary art
- Sigrid de CastellaJuly 25, 2022The Picasso Century was irresponsibly crowded meaning you were unable to spend adequate time viewing the pieces comfortably. Fewer Picasso pieces than expected (around 30%) but was long!
- Bayley MillardMay 6, 2013I really love it here but the staff let it down. so rude and ready for retirement. please u work at an art gallery not a national security office chill out!!
- Naoki FerrioAugust 12, 2023Located next to ACMI, housed various art exhibition from paintings to Minangkabau head dress.
- Head to the 20th Century Design room on the 3rd floor and take a photo of Marc Newson's Lockheed Lounge. Then go out to the garden and sit in one of his white "Felt Chairs" while enjoying the view.
