The Wizard of Oz Museum in Cape Canaveral, Florida near Cocoa Beach is filled with an amazing collection of memorabilia and a 20000 square foot room where you can enjoy an immersive Van Gogh experience and the immersive Wizard of Oz experience.

In 1900, L. Frank Baum published The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. It was an instant hit with over three million book sales, a Broadway musical and an iconic 1939 movie. The Wizard of Oz Museum in Cape Canaveral, Florida has an impressive display of autographs, clothing, dolls, comics, toys, maps, original props and costumes, collectible figurines, posters and first editions including the earliest recorded copy of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz!

After enjoying this amazing collection, be sure to take a selfie with the Wicked Witch of the West and her flying monkeys! Then, step into the immersive experience room where thirty-one projectors place you in the middle of the action with 3-D style videos projecting on all four walls and the floor. We enjoyed the immersive Van Gogh experience and the immersive Wizard of Oz experience so much that we sat through each several times. Owner Fred Trust told us that this is the only permanent immersive experience in the USA.

The Wizard of Oz Museum in Cape Canaveral, Florida is an ideal way to spend the morning or afternoon whether you are vacationing in Cocoa Beach or arriving before a cruise ship vacation.
