The Barbie Experience Is Returning to Indiana and It Looks Better Than Ever
The Barbie Experience is Back and Here's What You Need to Know
If you grew up with a Barbie in your hand, get ready to feel like a kid again.
Yesterday was National Pink Day and nothing screams pink more Barbie herself and she's coming to Indianapolis. The beloved Barbie You Can Be Anything: The Experience is returning to the Children's Museum of Indianapolis, and it's back bigger and better than ever. The exhibit officially opens January 30, 2027, and trust us this is one you don't want to miss.
What Is the Barbie Experience?
This isn't your average museum exhibit. Barbie You Can Be Anything: The Experience is an immersive, hands-on exhibit that brings the world of Barbie to life in a way that's fun for kids AND nostalgic for adults. Whether you grew up in the 80s, 90s, or 2000s, walking through this exhibit is guaranteed to bring back some serious memories.
The exhibit celebrates everything Barbie stands for imagination, ambition, and the idea that you really can be anything you set your mind to. From iconic career moments to classic fashion, it's a full-on Barbie world and you're just living in it.
Strike a Pose in the Giant Barbie Box
Here's the fun part: the Children's Museum has already built a giant Barbie Box to help kick off the excitement, and it's absolutely everything. If you remember the summer of 2023 and the whole "Barbenheimer" phenomenon, you probably remember seeing giant Barbie Boxes popping up at movie theaters everywhere for photo ops. Now you can recreate that experience right here in Indiana. Step inside, strike your best Barbie pose, snap a photo, and share it with the world. It's the perfect Instagram-worthy moment before the exhibit even opens.
How to Get In
The easiest way to experience everything the Children's Museum has to offer including the Barbie exhibit is with a membership. A membership gets you a full year of fun, unlimited visits, and access to this amazing exhibit from day one.
It's a great deal for families, and honestly, for anyone who just really loves Barbie (no judgment here).
You can learn more and grab your membership at childrensmuseum.org.
