Wonderspaces Austin

It was a good immersive experience. It's a self- guided tour using their QR code and following through. Guests should read each Artwork or art installations to fully understand what it means and truly experience what is being suggested. Not recommended for young kids but a good activity to do as adults or for teens or college students. Something different. You will explore at your own pace.

Visited on 11/10/25: This was a super fun art exhibit. We went in the evening and there were only a few other guests moseying around so we really felt like we had plenty of time interacting/observing all the different exhibits without feeling rushed and were able to circle back to visit our favorite ones again. This place isn’t for everyone but if you enjoy art, interacting with art, and enter with a curious mind, you’ll like it.

May very well be one of the coolest and most innovative experiences I have ever had. Immersive and delights all the senses! My mind was transported during this time to another world, dimension, and time. It is definitely an experience everyone should have!

Visited on a weekend evening. Not crowded and the place is calm. Tickets need to purchased online before arriving. Takes around 3-3.5hrs for the entire tour. Has a small cafe and restrooms attached. Good place to spend time with family on a weekend. Ample parking space with accessibility options available.

Its a small building but has so much and is worth the money! It has a lot of interactive art as well and not just something to watch. A lot of the exhibits were really enjoyable! The staff was also really kind and helped keep the space really well kept :)

Went on a date to Wonderspaces a few weeks ago. My partner had been before and noticed there are far less exhibits than the previous time he went. Though I enjoyed my time, I agreed it was a bit underwhelming. The exhibits list the name of the piece and the artist, however there is no description or backstory on the piece or way to learn more about the artist. As an artist, I believe this is necessary at any Art exhibition. Nonetheless, we had a decent enough time. I hope more exhibits are added to fill up the extensive void that currently resides in Wonderspaces.

Delighted by this experience! It was futuristic and different, with plenty of parking available outside. The art exhibits were out of this world, making me feel like I was living in an alternative reality. Very well made and an absolutely fantastic opportunity for parents to introduce their kids to something truly worthwhile and inspiring. Highly recommend for a unique and immersive art experience!

We had a great time. Super cool exhibits also! Definitely recommend!

Great concept and good times. Know that tickets must be purchased online - we stood there and purchased ours- the waiver can be signed at the venue. After checking in, you get to walk around several exhibits with most interactive. The sting lights was fun with the colors and photo ops. Only down side was the entrance sunlight beaming in impacting the full light experience. Next up and interactive floor where we all got to get on and see what happened. The sewing machine exhibit we didn't get. Tunnel was fun too with the lights and music as well as the string boxes. Upstairs they allowed for a small written note and for you to read others. Some were cute and from kids, others were a bit dark. Not gonna lie. There was a six minute show with visual effect which was cool to see. Then an interactive screen with paint as you moved. Super fun. Last a video which you gotta watch start to finish. We came in half way and was lost. But after seeing the start made it clear. Overall the staff was friendly, place was clean and good interaction and for $25 not too shabby.

Decided to stop by after an unexpected trip to Austin, all the exhibits were very cool and interactive. The Last Words exhibit made me cry a little bit and was very meaningful. I got to do the Human Study with the robot but didn't purchase any of the pictures because they were pretty expensive. The bar had drinks with different themes which was cute, this is very self guided place but the little interactions we had were polite. I was hesitant with the ticket price at first but ultimately I think it was worth it!

Came here for the last day of our stay in Texas, front desk greeter all smiles, space was big and showcased lots of artist work. It was a very colorful experience. There are some art that involve strobing lights so not ideal for photo sensitive individuals.

I wish the exhibits changed more often! You can go once and it's cool, but it definitely doesn't hit the same the second time around. You can see everything very quickly and honestly it's not a huge space, but it is cool.

Wonderspaces is an interactive and immersive museum. The concept is cool, but the admission price is a little high for what it's worth and the size of the museum. The only individual exhibitions were separated from each other by curtains which seemed kind of cheap. We still had fun though.

Immersive, imagination, iconic, unbelievable, fantastic, creative, fun, unique, amazing, creative.... Do I need to say anything else to get you to go? You absolutely have got to buy a ticket and experience one spaces.

Went here for a date, and had a lot of fun and meaningful moments! Most of the exhibits are interactive, which was really cool. The price matches the value of the experience imo. I'd definitely go again to see what new exhibits they put up. The staff were helpful and really polite too!

Good experience overall! Staff was cool and patient. Drinks offered were delicious (I got the elderberry tea) and were a bit pricey but worth it in my opinion. Would go again. Interactive museums are great!

A few of my friends and I were stuck waiting for flights after a weekend in Austin so we checked this place out. It was totally worth the trip! The set up was simple and convenient to navigate and it was a nice, air conditioned break from the heat. When you go, check out "the last word" if they still have it. It was by far the coolest installation!

it was very interesting. Lots of stations and science activities. You need to have at least one or two hours spend there to have both floor and take lots of photos. They have a coffee shop in there and one of the interesting part was the drawing robot which you have to sit for 20 minutes for the robot to draw you it's not verygood lol

Cool art space to check out if you're looking for something to do. I loved these color lights at the beginning. Buy tickets online and sign the wavier! Good to spend a couple hours here exploring the art :)

This is a wonderful place to be with family and friends, to enjoy some indoor fun, at the same time to get away from the Texas heat A picture worth thousand word. Here I captured at least 1 photo or video per session, to help you to see what's the inside consist of.

Wonderspaces features immersive, interactive art exhibits, which periodically rotate in and out. This location features installations on two floors. Tickets are for entry at specific times during the day, so if you time it well, it won't be too crowded. They also offer memberships. Upon entering the building, you'll have to check-in and potentially sign a waiver. After that, you'll be free to peruse the space and interact with the installations. There are quite a few exhibits, so spending between 30 minutes and 2 hours there seems reasonable. Many exhibits use lighting, sound, and are interactive through motion tracking. Other exhibits operate on a timed schedule. They also have bathrooms and a bar. Seating is available at various locations, including the VR exhibit. Overall, relatively interesting. The exhibits don't seem to turn over very quickly, so if you've gone once, you might not go again unless something substantial has changed, so the revisit value appears to be low.

Super cool place to kill an hour. Not your typical art museums -- definitely more like an interactive experience sprinkled with art. I liked that there were many exhibits, and they were all so different. My friend and I got a drink at the bar that was really good. It also comes with a cute souvenir glass. I also liked that there is a chatbot that explains each of the areas and how to interact with them.

Wow! This was a cool place! It was recommended by a local friend for our long weekend visit and it was well worth it! We had a toddler, teen, and 3 adults, and all of us had a great time. Very cool immersive exhibits including a sewing machine symphony and robot drawn self portraits. Definitely stop in the little cafe for a cocktail, mock tail, or craft made iced tea. We had the Pink Lady Soda and the Lavender Texas Skies, and Dill Pickle Popcorn made locally. All were DELICIOUS!! Everyone was kind and helpful. It was a great way to spend our morning. (About 2 hours)

Wonderspaces is one of my favorite museums in Austin! I have visited twice. Roughly one visit can last anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half. It is a great spot to take fun pictures! There is a bar in the museum if you want to relax and enjoy the space longer.

Reserve a time ahead and you have a window to go. You can walk through the ~15 exhibits relatively quickly, but stop and smell the roses! You'll get the most out your experience if you watch everything to the fullest. Most of the exhibits have an estimated time to interact with them. We spent a total of just over two hours there taking many photos under the thousands of lights, rainbow strings, reading other people's "last words" and having one member get drawn by the facial recognition robot. Drinks are pricey but come with a jug to go, so I'd argue they are reasonably priced. ($16 with tax and tip for a cocktail) And for those commenting about the bi-gender bathrooms, there are gender specific bathrooms right next to them.

Highly recommend. They even have a bar. Very relaxed atmosphere lots to do and see great for all ages. Would definitely go again

My fiance took me here as part of my birthday celebration. He knows I love light shows and art. So this was a perfect combination. I told him about my experience at teamLab in Tokyo. Unfortunately this did not live up to the expectation. For $25 per ticket, we spend just an hour. We literally took our time to take pictures yet 60 minutes was all it took to enjoy this exhibition. One of the art displays was "under maintenance" so that was a bummer. Another exhibit we were hoping to see was on display last year but not this year. Therefore some exhibits are permanent and some are seasonal. While there was no wait and the staff were very friendly, I don't think this was worth the value. While I enjoyed the VR headset experience, I think it can be better. There needs to be more interactive arts to make it worth $25.

I really enjoyed myself at this interactive art museum. You have to go in and let your inhibitions go as some art work is more interactive than others. I found all of the exhibits to be amazing. I don't want to spoil it for anyone so I won't go into details. There's also a bar area that you can order drinks. I'm definitely coming back.

About 15 exhibits to view. Most of them you cannot touch. I been to quite a few immersive museums and I can't say this is my favorite. The best part is the last word wall. That was a neat addition where guest could write down thoughts and leave for others to read. Other than that nothing else was too memorable.

I was invited to visit Wonderspaces and had a great time! It is out of the way (15-20min north of downtown), but I thought it was a fun and different experience to have in Austin! There's 16 displays and most are immersive and/or interactive, which I enjoyed. Much better than just staring at art! It's also not too crowded, so you can certainly enjoy each exhibit by yourself if you wait a few minutes for people to pass by. If you want to see or know more, check out my social media accounts @vaniabeann!

This was the coolest thing I did on my visit to Austin - by a mile. Recommend checking out this immersive art space!

I was in Austin in early June where it was so hot! I wanted something to occupy my time as I was there for a wedding and this was my first adventure. I found out about Wonderspaces on Instagram. The tickets were reasonably priced, so I purchased my ticket online and Ubered there. It seemed to be in an office park that looked slightly industrial. When I came in, my ticket was scanned and I was given instructions about the interactive art installation. I wandered around and really enjoyed the artwork. There is a bar and the entire installation is very interactive. I'm glad I stopped in here.

Like many folks we got this as a pop up ad while in Austin so why not give it a go? It's a warehouse that they have set up to be an interactive art display. Great opportunities for IG photos but for me with my 7 followers I didn't go for that . You kinda just walk amongst the displays and see what you see... the dropping lights and the VR goggles are far and away the most popular. In my opinion the VR goggle thing upstairs is actually more interesting when you realize the people all sitting in silence with the goggles on are the actual display not what they are watching... so the art watcher becomes the art ...I took off stars because a few of the displays weren't working when we went and it was a little underwhelming...plus there was a creepy couple taking photos of one of our youngsters without permission... I didn't care for that...

I'm not sure what I expected from this place (likely some painted wall, gag heavy, Insta-focused, low-budget experience), but I was pleasantly surprised. Cleverly hidden behind its office park facade, this spot boasts a pretty incredible, family friendly interactive museum experience. From the variety of conceptual ideas, to the integration of touch, VR, AI, and visual manipulation, art and science nerds (*raises hand*), are really in for a treat! I won't spoil too much, because I truly believe this is one of those spots that's best experienced without too much additional context, but my favorite installations were those where I waited for the crowd or large family to pass, and experienced the work in solitude, reflecting on the message of the artist, and sitting in my appreciation of the work. That being said, I highly recommend visiting during off hours and giving yourself time to savor and interact with each piece. The only recommendation I'd make (and this may be due to the limitations of the building itself) is revising the exit, so that the exhibit has an intentional end that leverages the power of the final interactive piece instead of encroaching on the entrance room. But, of course, that's minor. We enjoyed our experience, and certainly think it's worth the visit!

A great activity to do with friends! Must buy your ticket online they don't sell tickets in person. They also sell non alcoholic and alcoholic drinks! Take your time because it's not really a lot of activities for the price but still a great time. @nhueats_

Pretty interesting & unique experience! My favorite exhibit was the one with the lights. We went on a Sunday, and it was pretty crowded. We unfortunately did not get to do the VR exhibit since there weren't any more VR goggles available and it was a long wait. I recommend booking online ahead of time. Regular tickets are $25 for age 13-59. They give students, seniors, military and healthcare a $5 discount, which I greatly appreciate.

El servicio estuvo genial, selection super good guys it's a place that you can go with your family, ni digamos de el "Valor" todo a un buen precio.

Excellent bar with beautiful drinks! And a very pretty space. The experiences were odd. My favorite was the strobe light effect on rotating objects--very trippy. And extra props to the team of people constantly wiping down Oculus headsets for the next set of people!

This was a complete waste of time and money. The exhibits were weird, abstract, and meaningless. The representative at the front desk barely wanted to assist the customers entering the museum. Yelpers just avoid this event at all cost. Ivie's bday

For full transparency, I was invited to come visit this location to try out for myself. This review is my 100% honest opinion on what my experience was while at Wonderspaces. This is a cute place to come take some trendy IG pics and visit an interactive museum for those who don't really connect with the more traditional ones. All the artwork is super cool and playful for all ages. Defo recommend getting a drink at the bar as they have both alcoholic and mocktail drinks as well as the regular cokes and such. Plus, at the end you get to keep the mason jar they serve it to you in! Take your time with this museum and really soak in the artwork, otherwise you'll blow through it really fast. Note: there are some artwork pieces that consist of strobe lights, so just a little warning for those who would prefer to avoid them but they are not mandatory to walk through to get to the next pieces!

This is a fun and interactive art space. I definitely say it's fun for all ages! They also have a bar to enjoy drinks as you walk through the exhibits. I recommend purchasing your tickets beforehand!

Nice museum to visit if you enjoy lights and optical illusions. On the outside, it looks like an office building, but inside is very clean and modern. There's a free parking lot next to it. There's 2 floors, about 15 exhibits and each one takes 5-10 minutes to experience. Almost every exhibit is interactive and most are kid friendly. My favorite are the dropping lights, it's perfect for pictures! Overall, I would recommend coming here to experience some unique art/light installations and escape the heat for a few hours.

Not sure why so much hate for this place. Came here not sure what to expect and we really enjoyed our experience here. The beauty of the exhibits and the interactive nature of them made it a really enjoyable experience. Love that there was a lot of space between each place. It gave an opportunity to think, enjoy and reflect. In this fast paced world, we need places like there where we can take a moment to think and relax. So glad that we stopped here.

Great experience. Took about 1-2 hrs. Such cool things to see including a really cool virtual reality art piece. Amazing visual illusions. Interactive displays. Loved the easy to use chat feature that tells you just enough about each exhibit! Thanks! Helps to make me appreciate the amount of work it takes to make art work! Ps. In a random industrial park.

What an awesome place full of wonder. I took my family here while they were in town. It was well worth the visit. There is plenty of parking onsite and you can purchase tickets for your group ahead of time. The interactive art exhibits were really entertaining. My favorite was the VR portion. If you are looking for something to do indoors - this is a great option!

I had never heard of this but we went over Shana's birthday and reunion weekend. It has several types of things and interactive displays that range from clever to unique. You can move the sun, see how big and bad trash has become, stings that messes with the eye, and an Occulas device film. There was a lot to do and see as well as a little food and bar area. They had cocktails, teas, soda, snacks and many drinks come with souvenir jars. The drinks were all good. The different and various displays are unique and while I have favorites they were all interesting. I am a bit ashamed I had not heard of this before. You can have your picture done by a machine or write something you always meant to say or read others. Pick a song meaningful to you. See lights that are fun. Sewing machines that play music and so much more. It's very loose, you go at your own pace. It's upstairs and down. Parking is good. I suggest this for a few hours of interesting fun and knowledge.

Wonderspaces is so fun! It's a great place to bring people from out of town, or enjoy a nice time out or when it's raining etc. I really love their exhibits it's fun to grab a drink and as it's a mix of experiential art

Visited here on a whim date with the boyfriend one Spring Break day and was thoroughly impressed and also had a good time looking at all the art displays and 3D shows they had and still have today. We had so much fun that I'm already anticipating of going back once they update to a new and different display.

My gf and I really enjoyed this gallery and all the exhibits available in April 2022. First off, we had a reservation but were super late because of terrible service at a taco food truck. (See my previous review) But luckily, the front desk staff at this gallery were really lenient and let us in anyway. I was really stressed I was going to be copped out of the $50 spent on 2 tickets. Lots of great photo opps and cool interactive art. The bar menu inside was actually really great. Definitely drinks we were tempted to try but didn't feel like carrying throughout the experience. One of my favorite parts was a VR experience. My headset didn't have any audio playing so I stuck my airpods in my ear and just played my own music so I wouldn't hear the ruckus of all the people around the room. It was nice digital artwork and felt immersive. I used to own an Occulus 2, so i'm a big fan of VR. I recommend this place if you and your partner like museums and art. Made for a great date activity!

Very cool, only spent about thirty minutes inside, cool detour if your visiting Austin l, drinks come with a free jar when you give back your cups

Took my friend from Germany. At the end we were both pretty disappointed. The tickets were over priced for what was offered. And it didn't take long to see it all. I would skip it and keep your money.

With little amount of things on our itinerary being in Austin, Texas we decided to check out Wonderingspaces. We didn't know what to expect besides just the things we saw on the internet. Ended up being a super fun and interactive experience! The workers are very helpful and kind throughout all the different interaction stations they had. They had a selection of about 18+ things to check out throughout our experience there which was definitely worth it! Definitely a one time thing for us unless they change up some stuff but highly recommend as we feel like we got our values worth.

Wonderspaces was great. Where it's located is a little weird and difficult to find but outside of that, you'll have a great time. There's a bar as well in case you want some libations to get through the museum of sorts. Great place for kids. Would recommend and return.

A complete waste of money. It's a tourist trap and definitely not worth the price of admission. The displays are gimmicky and questionable as "art". You can check out the whole place in like 15 minutes. The staff was nice enough but honestly we felt like we had gotten scammed. We would not recommend.

Get your gram on at Wonderspaces. My friend who was visiting town actually found the spot. I'm not really an art-lover, but I am a narcissist, so Wonderspaces is a great spot to update my Hinge profile ;) There's around 11 experiences, some were more interesting and thought-provoking than others. They're split up between 2 floors in a warehouse. Make of the experiences what you will, if you're big on getting a new IG selfie, I would say approximately 5 of the exhibits are just right. A few things to note. - Make sure your cell has enough juice, it'd suck to miss out on all the future likes and comments. - For those who want to chill and drink, they have a bar with some interesting looking cocktails! - At least when I went, there was a fence that prevented me from driving right to the spot, you have to drive all the way to the back of the set of warehouses then around the corner to get there. - Bring a buddy (or make a new friend), some of the exhibits look better as a portrait than as a selfie. I give Wonderspaces 4 lifestyle influencers, out of 5

Wonderspaces has been a great escape this summer from the heat with a baby. It's a lovely warehouse with stellar live action art projects. Major props to everyone involved in making this place great. Plenty of parking, so that's not a problem. Get their early as there are forms you need to fill out. I also recommend coming at off hours so you can avoid the social media influencers thinking they can take up each section for 5-10 minutes till they can "get their angle right" . There is a full service bar which is awesome and surprising. Elevator lift in the back if needed which we used for our baby/stroller.

A memory I will never forget. My favorite art pieces were "last words" where you write words you should have said that you never got the chance to. You take a piece of paper off the wall and write your own words that you wish you could have said to someone. You are also allowed to read what other participants have written. I found it very insightful and inspiring. The other favorite was obviously the hanging lights. My 6 month old son loved it!
