Easter Access Day

Join us on Access Day to enjoy a welcoming visitor experience for the widest possible audience.

The British Motor Museum is committed to being accessible to all, regardless of accessibility requirements.

This Easter, Wednesday 3 April will be the Museum's second dedicated Access Day, showcasing the range of accessible activities and initiatives on offer.

All activities are free with general admission.

Touch and Access Tours

Sign up and join the Learning Team on one of our hands-on sensory Touch and Access Tours. These sensory guided tours bring the collection to life, allowing visitors to get up close to and touch a number of the cars in the Museum.

Sign up at the Family Activity Station and join the tour from the designated meeting point.

Quiet Hours - 9am-10am and 5pm-6pm

On Access Day, we will be enabling those who need a quieter environment to enjoy our fantastic collection with Quiet Hours.

These will run from 9am to 10am and 5pm to 6pm. Audiovisuals and hand dryers will be switched off (paper towels will be provided), and we will be lowering the Museum's lighting. 

Object Handling - 9:30am to 4pm

During the day, we’ll be hosting Object Handling workshops, for the chance to get hands-on with a selection of artefacts. Take a dive into history and discover a variety of treasures from our collection that will provoke memories and encourage conversation.

Changing Places Toilet

A new permanent Changing Places toilet will be in place in time for the Easter Holidays too, installed thanks to grant funding provided by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities with support from Stratford on Avon District Council in association with Muscular Dystrophy UK.

This new facility is designed to accommodate those with accessibility needs, with specialist equipment, such as a hoist and space for carers.
