Overall Rating
Excellent
The Barbican has a number of venues (I haven't been to them all) including 3 cinemas, a theatre and music venue. I've been there countless times over the past couple of years. The venue is very accessible and caters for disabled guests extremely well.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
The main access is at street level with a slope down to the heart of the building. ( cinema numbers 2 and 3 are slightly separate and at street level). Within the building there are lifts to bring you to the various venues/restaurants etc
Parking & Transport
Good
I believe it has disabled parking, however I have not used it. Transport connections from Farringdon Tube station (about 15 min push) and bus routes is very good.
Accessible Toilets
Excellent
plenty of accessible toilets available
Staff
Good
unlike many venues I did not require any assistance from staff due to the high degree of accessibility
