Overview

Journey through the private Parliament House courtyards this spring. On this guided tour, you'll enjoy new season blooms bursting with colour and fragrance. You'll also learn about Parliament House's stunning landscape architecture and design.

As you stroll through the gardens, see how sculptures, plant selections and colours make each space unique. This is a special opportunity to visit private courtyards that are rarely open to the public.

They are running a dedicated accessible tour on Friday 19 September 2025 at 11:00 am. This tour is ideal for visitors with autism or sensory requirements.

Make your day out a true celebration of spring by adding a refreshment package to your ticket. The package includes a delicious scone and a hot beverage of your choice from the Queen's Terrace Cafe.
