“Madame Tussauds is arguably one of the most photographed places in Sydney – everywhere you turn there is a photo opportunity. From the interactive sets to the outfits, props and accessories, the humble selfie just doesn’t do your experience justice.”

Mark Connolly, General Manager of Madame Tussauds Sydney.

“We’re excited to launch the Selfie Butler – it’s the first time we’ve done anything like it. The service will give our guests a break from the selfie, and ensures they get the perfect photo on their device every single time,” he said.

Meet-and-greet the Royal family, walk the catwalk and strike a pose with Megan Gale, and plant a kiss on the dreamy Liam Hemsworth; let the Selfie Butler capture the moment with all your friends without you having to even lift a finger (or leave anyone out!).
