Introducing the V&A Icons Programme
A little thank you for a lifetime of impact.
Open to anyone aged 60 and over, the V&A Icons Programme offers exclusive benefits and experiences designed to help our Icons enjoy the very best of the V&A. On their own terms, in their own time.
Here’s what’s waiting:
See the sights
Special rates on attractions like the Cape Wheel, harbour cruises, and walking tours mean every visit can feel like a new adventure.
Eat well, laugh often
Participating restaurants offer discounted menus, early-bird specials, and sweet treats. Whether it’s coffee with friends or a quiet dinner for one, we’ve made it easier to enjoy the moment.
Support local, discover more
Look out for discounts and special offers at selected retailers across the precinct. From books to clothes to handmade crafts, there’s always something worth discovering.
Stay inspired
Reduced entry fees to museums, galleries and exhibitions mean it’s never too late to explore, create, and stay curious.
Unwind your way
Our Icons can enjoy special rates at spas, salons and wellness spaces throughout the Waterfront. Time to breathe. Time to glow.
FREE Weekday Parking
Icons park for free every weekday from 9am to 2pm. Because little things make a big difference!
Becoming a Neighbourhood Icon is quick and simple:
-Visit any V&A Waterfront information kiosk with your ID
-Fill out a short application form
-Our team will process your application on the spot
-You’ll receive your personalised V&A Icons card, ready to use immediately
Much more than a discount card
This is about more than perks. It’s about acknowledging the ones who’ve quietly shaped our community.
It’s about creating space for connection, joy and a sense of belonging.
It’s about celebrating the strength, warmth and character our Icons bring to this place, every day.
Just the beginning
We’re always working on more ways to support and uplift our Neighbourhood Icons. From wellness classes to creative workshops and curated events, we’re growing a programme that gives back to those who’ve given so much.
The V&A Waterfront is where history meets possibility.
With the Icons Programme, it’s also where wisdom meets wonder.
Because here, adventure doesn’t retire. And every story still matters.
