Disabled Access

Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery are continually improving their services for people with disabilities.

Lift access to all floors can be found next to the Gas Hall entrance on Edmund Street and wheelchairs are available for use within the museum.

The nearby Waterhall can also be accessed using the lift located to the left of the Waterhall entrance on Edmund Street.

There is a free audio guide for the Victorian Gallery in the Round Room and many of the galleries have tactile and interactive displays.

There is no car park at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, but car parks and pay and display on street parking can be found close by. Parking bays for Blue Badge Holders can be found on Margaret Street, Edmund Street and Newhall Street.

A map which shows parking for Blue Badge Holders in the city centre can be downloaded here.
