About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 715liviac0 contributionsArtvo Gold Coast - Interactive ArtThis turned out to be even more fun then we were expecting. We had a fantastic time spending a good 2 hours here. The kids had a great time interacting with the amazing art work and we got some great photos. Definitely worth a visit.Written 28 November 2022
- Jeff M0 contributionsEnjoyable but pricyAll of the art is amazing, my kids enjoyed every single room and imagined to be making a cartoon with art as the background setting for the scene. One thing is that the ticket price is very expensive for an experience 50% of which is the participants having to engage with art, not the other way around.Written 7 October 2021
- MichelleN5620 contributionsLots of funThis was our second ArtVo experience (having been to the one in Melbourne) and we had a great time. Our 3 kids (6yr old and twin almost 2 year olds) also enjoyed it, with the older one taking pics and posing and the littlies being happy enough looking around.Written 18 April 2021
- gooffynjack0 contributionsAMAZINGWow the art is one thing but how it’s interactive is great the staff were excellent being 2020 they can’t touch your phone but use theirs and airdrop photos to you it’s not a shop front it’s a door right next to Kathmandu and up the stairs spent just over an hour here for 2 people so plan longer for a bigger group give all photos a go it’s funWritten 21 December 2020
- AussiesOS0 contributionsKids loved itTook my granddaughters to Artvo and they loved it. The entrance is right near Katmandu at Robina Shopping Centre. There are lots of scenes and rooms to wander through. You can take as many photos as you want, and take your time. Great place to spend some time in the school holidays. They had a 'walk in' special price of children under 15 free, and I paid $23. Good fun.Written 8 July 2020
- Gstarmartin0 contributionsAMZINGAmazing attraction definitely worth wile. I would recommend it to all ages. Sensational art works. Lots of friendly staff helping you so you can take the best photo possible. It is suitable for all ages. When you get tickets online it's cheaper. When you buy the ticket you can use it all day so you can come out to go get food and re enter straight away without paying again. Friendly staff. Great opening hours. Lots of zones/ themes to enter. looks very realistic. if you keep walking a little bit past Kathmandu you will see a banner out the front. There is only a small door ti enter so look out. I would 100% recommend it.Written 15 February 2020
- ashy31470 contributionsGood fun at ArtvoThis is a fun place to go. Was good we had more adults than children as it made it easier to pose the children ready for photo's. Staff were helpful in assisting taking group photos & "different" poses. Unfortunately some of the public visiting need to learn patience in waiting their turn & to keep children under control & not running amok making it more difficult to take your own photo's. Fortunately your ticket is for multiple entry all day so we left & returned later Worth visitingWritten 2 February 2020
- reviews61690 contributionsAbsolutely amazing and lots of funWe saw this placed on tv when watching the great south east and had to try it. We purchased tickets online to save a bit of money. When we got there we were greeted by friendly staff who demonstrated what do to in order to take the best photos. Staff were very accommodating and helped with taking the best photos for couples and families. The art work was just simply mind blowing! So much to look at. I highly recommend checking out this place. We absolutely loved it 💕Written 17 January 2020
- adamkQ1518HD0 contributionsVery EnjoyableHad a fantastic time today with my wife and 3 boys aged 3, 7 and 9. Saw the gallery advertised at the airport and was not disappointed. The staff are great and the attraction is fantastic. We took some excellent pics. Not so easy to find within the centre (it’s opposite Cotton On). Highly recommend it. So much fun and reasonably priced entertainment.Written 8 January 2020
- Lorene650 contributionsAmazingWe went here not really knowing what to expect, but so glad we did. The photos came out great and staff were very helpful 😊Written 17 November 2019
- lisamZ1118PB0 contributionsExcellent way to spend an afternoonToday we visited ArtVo on the Gold Coast at Robina, it’s a little hard to find but worth the effort. The 3D effects are fun and you can use your imagination to find new ways to use the props. Most my ideas were inappropriate which added to the enjoyment. I am 55 and my play friend today is in her mid 60’s we were able to enjoy all the photo opportunities and it was pure fun.Written 16 November 2019
- DeeNJeff0 contributionsAmazingYou have to experience it to know it’s full value. Went in a group with friends and spent several hours totally entertained. Big thanks to Sara for showing us how to get the best out of our photosWritten 13 November 2019
- auskez0 contributionsGreat FunHad a great time with my grandsons they loved every minute and the two lovely ladies working there were so helpful Maddie and Tia thank you for your helpWritten 10 October 2019
- jampotcreek0 contributionsLots of funWe are 4 people over 50 and we rocked into Artvo for a look. Well we were met outside by Blake who helped with tickets. $23 an adult to come and go all day. With one of us not being a photo person within minutes he was joining in and having fun. Spent 2 hours in there having an amazingly great fun time. Midway through again Blake come in and took some group photo’s of us and helped with poses. Lots of laughs. We then left to have some lunch to then return for another couple of hours. Kate took a couple of last group photo’s for us. We now have some great memories and heaps of amazing photo’s. I would definitely recommend Artvo to everyone young or old. What a blast.Written 1 October 2019
- Southern_Qld0 contributionsFun for over 65'ers!What a great place to play! Four friends all over 60 had such a wonderful time at ArtVo Robina. Artwork is incredible, prices are fantastic (low) and the fun is up to your imagination. If you are any where near the Gold Coast - just go. If you need to travel to get there -GO!!! Seniors require their Proof of Age or Seniors card to get the reduced price. You need a phone with a camera, or a camera (no flash as the lighting accommodates that) and there are very clear instructions on where and how to take the photo you want. You can stay as long as you like and take as many photos as you feel the need to. The staff are fantastic (they took our group photos) and provide support throughout your journey through the various rooms. Well done and a very big thank you to all involved.Written 11 August 2019

our group of six 50+ adults totally enjoyed our time at ArtVo... we arrived at opening time on a Sunday, we had plenty of time and room to decide our positions for each art masterpiece, and take each others pics.. staff were available to give ideas. So, with 6 of us we spent around 2 hours. Finding Artvo? look for the shop Cotton On.. and you'll see a Black Door directly opposite that shop with ArtVo printed above the door. is a lift up to the next floor, as well as steps to cater for anyone who prefers a lift. Suggest taking bottle of water for sipping.. while there is no drinks available at ArtVo, you are allowed to exit and re-enter same day (they stamp your wrist) to go out and have a coffee break and then return. Staff were lovely and most helpful.. was sooo much fun! Hope this helps :-)

This is the second time we've been to ArtVo. This time we brought our family because we knew they'd love it. The Grandkids had a great time, coming up with some great poses and expressions, even our tween who normally isnkeen on photos! Our son took on the Director's role, and we have some amazing family photos and memories.

Such an amazing, original concept! Didn’t know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised! We had lots of fun creating the photo scenarios and the results were fantastic!
Big shout out to Liane (forgive me if I spelled your name wrong!), for providing superior customer service to our family. You remember us, the London crew and my 4 year old princess who you gave a balloon to at the end.
Even though she was on her own, she never stopped smiling, was cool, calm, collected and she still found time to take photos for/us from the best angles.
This is a must do activity! Oh, bring extra cash as the event is located within a vast shopping mall!

Hi,
Planned a trip to Gold Coast Artvo based on the timings displayed on the website. We had earlier checked with the help centre if we could prebook the tickets however we were told that it will be readily available and we could walk in. The website was not accepting any tickets booking either.
The closing time was displayed as 6 pm on Artvo website. when we reached Artvo at 4.45 pm we were told that the close time was 5 pm. Hope the relevant team can look into updating the correct information on website to avoid disappointment for the visitors from different cities and countries.

The staff were so accommodating, friendly and willing to help guide us through poses. Provided us with a lot of information. We appreciated the artwork and to see it transform into real life with a click of a camera was soooo amazing. Very talented artists.

Highly recommend. The staff were amazing very informative and friendly. Offered to take group pics so we could all be in some.
The artwork was amazing and the 3D effect is awesome and really allows everyone to be involved. We went with our 13 yrd old and 4 year old who is on the ASD spectrum(non-verbal) and both of them loved the experience.

The entrance to Artvo is small and easy to miss however the space inside is spacious and open, it's quite deceiving.
Upon entry we were greeted by a friendly staff member who we proceeded to hand our vouchers to, only to find out we had copied them but not redeemed them.
According to the fabulous Frankie who assisted us through the error it unfortunately occurs all the time so for those with the Red Balloon vouchers, this is a heads up.
Frankie had such a friendly, helpful manner and was most patient as we dealt with the situation, so after a phone call to Red Balloon and vouchers sorted we were on our way.
TBH we thought we'd use the vouchers and kill an hour but boy were we wrong, it was great fun and even our 20 something kids happily joined in on the fun.
There are some gorgeous scenes and loads of variety to get some great photos. We had loads of laughs and we ended up spending longer than the hour we anticipated we were having so much fun.
Well worth a visit for the young and not so young.

Was advertised as $7 per ticket up until the 4th of October, go there on the 4th price for tickets was 34 or 38 dollars. Show the clerk the advertised price still cost 30 for two tickets? Once your inside, the art is cool, got some good photos. 3/4's of the way through it fizzes out big time, loads of this space is not currently available type signs. Anyway, if your looking to spend 30 bucks go bowling or mini golf, my 9 year old was done after about 15 mins.

Thanks for coming down to Artvo. The advertised price was for the kids special at $7 with a full paying adult ticket which has been discounted down to $30 for two tickets. We are sorry to hear that you didn't find your visit to Artvo worthwhile despite there being some fun interactive art pieces. Customer satisfaction is of utmost importance to us. We as a team are taking into consideration your feedback and working to improve the overall customer experience. We encourage our patrons to engage our staff as they are always available to provide support and inspiration for the best photos.

We had a fantastic time at ArtVo Robina with the kids. The interactive "trick-art" gallery, located in Robina Town Centre, offers over 80 hand-painted murals that create amazing optical illusions. The kids loved stepping into the artwork and posing for unique, fun photos. It was a perfect activity for the school holidays, providing entertainment and creative engagement for the whole family. Highly recommend for a memorable family outing on the Gold Coast!

ArtVo was an absolute blast! The optical illusions were mind-blowing, and we had a blast capturing some truly amazing photographs. Frankie was incredibly friendly and always ready to snap a picture for us. We loved how each piece of artwork came with instructions on how to get the perfect shot. Highly recommend this experience for families looking for a fun and memorable outing.
