Glassworks Experience

A must-do Canberra activity for families and small groups

Looking for a unique and unforgettable experience during your visit to Canberra? Join us at Canberra Glassworks, Australia's leading studio glass facility, for a guided tour and hands-on workshop. Book as an individual, a couple, or a small group - you’ll be part of a shared experience with others.

After your tour, you can choose to enhance your experience with our optional tile-making workshop, where you’ll design your own mosaic glass creation. Using colourful glass pieces, you’ll arrange your design, which will be fused in a kiln overnight. You can also choose to add a recycled hardwood timber stand for your tile. Finished works can be collected five days later from the Canberra Glassworks foyer, or posted for an additional fee.

You can also add an optional Brodburger lunch to complete your day.

A creative and authentic Australian experience that’s perfect for travelers of all ages!
