ACCESSIBILITY AT SOUTH BANK PARKLANDS

South Bank is proud to be an accessible precinct for all visitors and we have equipped the precinct with everything that you need to enjoy your visit.

We are continuously working to support Brisbane City Council’s vision of creating an accessible city for everyone by 2031. More details about how this is being achieved across the city can be found on the Council website. If you have any questions about accessibility at South Bank, please contact the South Bank Visitor Information Centre on 07 3029 1797.

Accessible parking

South Bank’s underground car park (located on Little Stanley Street) has several disabled parking bays, which are conveniently located near the car park lifts at the northern and southern ends of level B1. More details including car park pricing can be found on the eatSouthBank website.

Accessible bathrooms and showers

Standard disabled bathrooms are located at South Bank Piazza and Stanley Street Plaza, while a specially designed disabled bathroom that includes a shower, ceiling hoist and a change table/shower trolley is located behind the Central Cafes. To use the ceiling hoist in this bathroom, you will need to bring your own sling with loop attachments. The key for the ceiling hoist can be collected from the South Bank Visitor Information and Booking Centre, which is located in Stanley Street Plaza. Visit the South Bank Map page to locate bathroom facilities in the Parklands.
