Why it's worth checking out
In Belconnen, Canberra, the AIS Visitor Centre provides an introduction to the Australian Institute of Sport, described by its own site as Australia’s premier elite sports precinct. It is a destination for visitors interested in how high-level sport is supported, with several experiences and facilities gathered across the AIS campus.
Visitors can join a guided tour of the AIS’s facilities, explore Sportex—an interactive sports exhibit—or browse the AIS Shop for sporting apparel. The campus also includes the AIS Aquatic Centre for swimming, the AIS Café for a meal or break, and the AIS Arena, which hosts sports, entertainment and other events. The range makes it easy to shape a visit around one activity or spend longer exploring the precinct.
The centre suits a broad mix of visitors. Families and school groups can choose an active, sport-focused outing, while solo visitors and sports fans may prefer the tours, Sportex or an event at the arena. It can also work as a casual stop for anyone curious about the Australian Institute of Sport and the wider Australian Sports Commission campus. Check the current programme and booking details before visiting, particularly for tours, school excursions and arena events.
