Ballarat Tramway Museum 5 Day Weather Forecast

The Ballarat Tramway Museum is staffed by volunteers who are dedicated to the task of preserving and operating part of the former Ballarat street tramways. Trams operates between 12:30 and 5:00pm every weekend and public holiday and during the Victorian school holidays. The trams run along Wendouree Parade through the beautiful and historic Botanical Gardens. Nearby Lake Wendouree is visible for most of the journey of fifteen to twenty minutes.
Visit the Tram Depot where a tram has been ingeniously converted into a display room where the story of trams in Ballarat is told and where tramway relics are on view. The display includes a short DVD presentation. Many photos and short movies from the Museum's archives are accessible. All the Museum’s trams are also on display including Horse Tram No 1 from 1887. Souvenirs are available for sale both on the trams and at the Depot. The Tram Depot is open on weekends, every afternoon from 4:00pm and at other times when volunteer staffing permits.
Group visits can usually be arranged at any time for groups as diverse as schools, senior citizens and wedding parties (catering can be arranged).
During 2015 there is a special display at the Museum "Trammies at War" remembering the contribution of the Ballarat tram workers to the First World War.
