Closed Saturday 28th January

28th January 2012 

The Museum's ticketed area (Arches 2-4) will be closed on Saturday 28th January for a private function. 

The free area in Arch One, including the Museum's Information Point and shop, will still be open.

Opening Times

As well as its normal Tuesday-to-Saturday schedule, the Museum will also be opening on Mondays until the 19th of September 2011.
 

Access to Arch Four may sometimes be restricted during school visits, which typically happen between 10am-~2pm, on weekdays. The larger visits are scheduled for Wednesdays. 

Group visits should be arranged in advance to avoid scheduling conflicts, especially during term time. 

Location

The Toy and Model Museum is underneath Brighton Railway Station, set into the arches below the station forecourt. 

The two parallel sets of railings in front of Marks and Spencer surround the sunken entrance to Trafalgar Street. We're down there, on the left (look for the white "Visitor Information" sign).

Admission Fees

Admission to the Shop and Visitor Information Point is free, and customers are not obliged to visit the Museum.

Wheelchair access to Museum

Though situated in a Victorian building, adaptations have been made to enable full wheelchair access.

One of our toilets has likewise been adapted. Please advise us in advance if anyone in your party requires wheelchair access.

Parking

The map shows three car parks within easy walking distance.

School Trips and Group Visits

School party visits can be tailored to meet the appropriate National Curriculum requirements, and teachers can visit free of charge to discuss a plan before the visit, if desired. Find out more on our 'Education and Schools' page or contact the Museum for further information.

The museum is currently very popular with schools. If you're thinking of visiting the museum as part of a group, we'd advise phoning ahead to make sure that your group visit doesn't clash with another school trip or group.
