The event takes place at the main location of the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, Schillerplatz 3, 1010 Vienna. Arrival is possible by public transport (see accessibility at Wiener Linien). If you arrive by car, there are two marked disabled parking spaces available in the inner courtyard (access via entrance Markartgasse).

The main building of the Academy at Schillerplatz has two main entrances due to different physical disability needs.

Entrance Schillerplatz:

  • For persons with visual disabilities: a tactile guidance system leads from the sidewalk down the right side of the historic staircase to the porter's lodge (ground floor)
  • For persons with walking disabilities: the historic staircase is equipped with additional handrails.
  • For persons with limited mobility: a sign leads from Schillerplatz entrance to the barrier-free Makartgasse entrance.

Entrance Makartgasse:

  • For persons with limited mobility: via an intercom system (stele on the left) you reach the porter, who opens the automatic gate.
  • In the passage, a ramp on the left side reaches the large automatic entrance door, which can be opened with a button to the right of the door.
  • From there (Souterrain) you can reach the elevator for access to the other floors. The porter is located on the ground floor.
  • Opening hours entrance Makartgasse: from 8 to 20 h.

The "Sitzungssaal" (E 1) is located on the ground floor. When entering via the Schillerplatz entrance, the room in the building is accessible at ground level. If you enter via the Markartgasse entrance, use the elevator from the Souterrain to the ground floor. The elevator is equipped with wheelchair accessible controls. The building has a (tactile) guidance system.

Barrier-free toilets are located on the ground floor as on every other floor of the building. The restrooms are accessible without Eurokey.

In order to be able to take all rescue measures in the event of a fire, wheelchair users are requested to register with the porter (either via the intercom system at the Makartgasse entrance or directly with the porter's lodge at the Schillerplatz entrance).
