The Australian Museum offers permanent galleries including the popular Dinosaurs exhibit, temporary and touring exhibitions; and has a collection of more than 18 million objects spanning culture and natural history.
The Australian Museum is fully accessible to visitors using wheelchairs and mobility scooters. The main entrance features a ramp with no steps, ensuring easy access for disabled individuals and wheelchair users. Inside, two elevators connect all floors, allowing seamless navigation throughout the building. While most exhibition areas are step-free, the Westpac Long Gallery on the G floor includes some steps. The UG level houses a dining area that can also be accessed via a ramp or elevator. Wheelchair-accessible toilets are available on every floor, enhancing convenience for visitors. Although the museum does not have a dedicated parking lot, the nearest parking is located at 70 Riley St, Darlinghurst.
Additional accessibility support is available from the admissions team, including wheelchairs that can be borrowed on arrival or reserved in advance. A Changing Places facility on Level 2 provides an adult-sized height-adjustable change table, ceiling hoist and additional circulation space for visitors with complex support needs and their carers. Visitors with sensory sensitivities can prepare using the museum’s Visual Story and sensory map, while free audio-description and Auslan resources are available for selected exhibitions.
