The Bradman Museum is located in the town of Bowral in the NSW Southern Highlands. The precinct also includes the Bradman Oval, which is used extensively during the cricket season for local matches and teams from around NSW. The adjacent children's playground is cricket-themed and has a gas barbecue for picnics and large grass areas.

Enjoy the 'Unstoppable' exhibition, celebrating women's cricket, a story of excellence, determination, and passion that features resourceful and talented women who stood against periodic negativity and inspired millions. From the 1800s through to the present day, this new multimedia experience explores the stories and moments that shaped Women's Cricket in Australia.
At the heart of the Museum is the greatest cricketer of all time, Sir Donald Bradman. Bradman was renowned for the values of modesty, dignity, integrity and courage, and these values resonate through the stories and people showcased in the Bradman Museum.
