Location
What people get wrong
Joseph Road off Dynon or Maribyrnong Street, not the mall. Quang Minh Temple is Sunshine. Do not send people to Burke Street. House phone is (03) 9687 3606. We last walked this on 2026-09-25. Hours move with the week. Checking the shopfront keeps the night easy.
What is Heavenly Queen Temple known for?
You leave the station and the river air hits before any Barkly queue does. Heavenly Queen Temple is the Joseph Road Mazu hall: a non-profit sustained by volunteers, a 365-day forecourt, a festival calendar that still wants the live site before you invent fireworks.
House copy honours Heavenly Queen, also known as Mazu. Staff language on this listing is Mandarin, Cantonese and English. Photography sits in designated areas. Donation copy names the official bank transfer on the house site only. Do not send money to a social-media account.
This is not Quang Minh in Sunshine. This is not St Monica on Whitehall. This is not Footscray Community Arts on Moreland. This is not Hop Nation. Leftover English line (03) 9689 9441 is not on the live house page we fetched. Use 3606.
What should you bring to Heavenly Queen Temple?
You should bring the respect the hall asks for, the question you came to ask, and a number they can call if a group booking needs it.
Call (03) 9687 3606. If you needed Mass, St Monica is Whitehall and Wingfield. If you needed a campus prayer room, VU Park Building E. If you needed a gallery, 45 Moreland. If you needed Quang Minh, that is Sunshine, not this river.
Stay long enough to match 20 Joseph Road. Free on-site parking is house copy. After dark the river precinct is quieter than Barkly. Leave via lit streets toward the station rather than an unlit trail shortcut.
Bring the question. House pages print a 2026 festival calendar. Confirm the date on the live site. A weekday 3:40pm arrival is already too late on the printed card. Saturday and Sunday die at 4pm.
Hours, tickets and queues at Heavenly Queen Temple
Open 365 days. Monday to Friday 9:30am to 3:30pm. Saturday and Sunday 9:30am to 4pm. Phone (03) 9687 3606. Last checked 2026-09-25.
Public-holiday access is the 365-day line, not a promise a ceremony is on. Do not invent a Mass time because St Monica prints one. Do not invent a Saturday 5pm close because leftover FCA directories print weekend hours.
Call 3606 the morning you travel if a group is the reason you came. The forecourt will take a visitor. It will not take a vigil. It will not open a gallery.

They walk to Sunshine, or they treat Whitehall as this hall, or they dial the leftover English line, and they miss a Joseph Road forecourt that still wants (03) 9687 3606 and a 3:30pm weekday close.
