However, certain exhibits, such as those with narrow pathways or elevated platforms (e.g., the Vortex exhibit), may not be fully accessible. Some areas may require physical stability or good physical condition for safe access. The museum is located on the first floor and in the event of an evacuation, designated refuge points are available where guests can wait for the fire brigade.

- Working guide and assistance dogs are welcome throughout the museum.
- Complimentary admission will be provided to caregiving companions accompanying a full-paying visitor with additional needs. Assistance dogs are welcome throughout the museum.
- While we strive to make the museum enjoyable for all visitors, some exhibits rely heavily on visual effects, which may limit enjoyment for visitors with visual impairments. Audio guides and tactile information are available upon request for certain exhibits. Exhibits relying on colour differentiation may not be fully accessible to visitors with colour blindness.
- While the museum’s exhibits are primarily visual, accessibility for deaf and hard-of-hearing visitors is limited. We are actively exploring ways to enhance the experience for all visitors.
- Epilepsy and Photosensitivity: Some exhibits include bright, flashing lights or high-contrast visual effects, which may not be suitable for individuals with epilepsy, photosensitivity or sensory sensitivities. Certain installations are set in dark environments and may not be suitable for individuals with night blindness. Visitors are encouraged to approach these exhibits with caution. Our staff is available to provide guidance and assistance where needed.
