What is a LIVE day?
On the third Sunday of every month, from February to November it's MOTAT LIVE Day — a chance to explore a different part of the MOTAT collection, with live entertainment and themed activities throughout the day.
From trams and communications to weather science and flying, there’s so much to see and learn, guided by experts and professionals in the field. MOTAT Live Days are all about celebrating innovation, discovery, and hands-on learning. Make Sunday a MOTAT day!
Please note: Pasifika Vibes is running across the weekend 14 and 15 March, so our usual LIVE Day activities will not be on in March. There will be plenty of fun to be had with a vibrant mix of music, dance, and activities for the whole whānau at Pasifika Vibes so be sure to join the fun!
See below for the upcoming LIVE Days.
