Travel instructions

A short walk from Flinders Street Station, or hop off the tram at Southbank/Southgate. Parking is available under the IBM Centre — the Book-A-Bay system takes your card as your entry/exit pass.

Entry instructions

- Bring photo ID, just in case security asks - Head into the 60 City Road lobby and call a lift up to level 28 - Lifts run freely before 6pm so please try to arrive while it's an easy process — if you're arriving after 6pm, call IBM's host **Iskra Nikolova on 0418 211 970** and she'll send a lift down for you but it might be a short wait because she will also be speaking on the panel. - Best accessible entrance is via City Road. Coming from the Southgate/river side? Look for the lift up to the building's lobby level first

After entry instructions

The entrance to the event will be at level 28 reception, just outside the lifts. You won't be able to miss it!

Hazards

The main hazard might be finding the lift to take you to the city road level from the riverside (Southgate) entrance since there are multiple sets of escalators and stairs. The lifts exist but they are inside Southgate and there might be 2 sets. Not the ideal accessible design, sorry.

Toilet location

Down the hallway near the kitchen.

Accessible parking

Parking is available under the IBM Centre — the Book-A-Bay system takes your card as your entry/exit pass. Not sure how many accessible parks they have, but their website says that they do have some.
