The Wizard of Oz Museum in Florida has officially been named one of the “7 Craziest Movie-Inspired Experiences in the World” by world-renowned traveler Drew Binsky.
Out of the hundreds of movie-themed destinations across the globe, our museum was selected as one of only two locations in the United States to make this prestigious list. This recognition places the Wizard of Oz Museum in the company of global landmarks like the Harry Potter Studio Tour in London and the Ghibli Museum in Tokyo.
Why Oz Made the Global Top 7
In his report, Drew Binsky—who has visited every single country on Earth—highlights the world’s most immersive and “crazy” cinematic journeys. Our museum was chosen for its unique blend of:
- Extensive Oz Collection: Featuring thousands of Wizard of Oz artifacts and memorabilia, including rare books, film-related objects, and items connected to L. Frank Baum and MGM’s 1939 film.
Immersive Technology: Our world-first Wizard of Oz immersive experience that transports visitors directly into the Land of Oz.
Historical Significance: Preservation of the 1939 film’s legacy alongside the original L. Frank Baum stories.
“Being recognized by a global explorer like Drew Binsky confirms what our visitors tell us every day: there is nowhere else on Earth quite like this museum.” — Fred Trust, Owner
