The Museums + Heritage Show takes place at:
Olympia West Hall – Level One
Blythe Road
London
W14 8UX
Please be advised that there are a number of changes in place due to extensive building works. In planning your stand set-up and breakdown please also refer to Deliveries and Timings
The Show is located on the first floor of the West Hall and so goods loading is via two lifts. The following dimensions and weight restrictions are for the larger of the two lifts.
Maximum lift dimensions:
Length: 6.82 m Width: 3.21 m Height: 2.84 m Loading: 6000 kg
Pedestrian Access
If you are arriving by public transport or on foot, which we actively encourage, please refer to the Deliveries and Timings section and ensure that you do not arrive outside of those times as you will, unfortunately, be refused admission. During build-up and breakdown access to the Show is via the main entrance on Blythe Road.

Tuesday 13 May
Deliveries by courier: 9am to 5.30pm
Shell Scheme Stand Build: 3.00pm – 9.00pm
The vast majority of our exhibitors have booked a Shell Scheme Stand so must adhere to the above timings. Please do not arrive outside of these hours – you will, unfortunately, be refused access and there can be no exceptions. We encourage you to arrive by public transport but if it is essential that you come by car or van then you MUST book a vehicle pass. Please note the vehicle management system will be live w/c 15 April. You are urged to make your booking as soon as possible as failure to do so may result in a lack of unloading/loading slot availability. Failure to do so will result in your entry being refused. Please refer to the Shell Scheme Stand information.
Space Only Stand Build: 11.00am – 9.00pm
Space only exhibitors and their contractors may have access to the Hall at this time only if your pre-submitted plans have been approved. If arriving by car or van then you MUST book a vehicle pass. Failure to do so will result in your entry being refused. Please refer to requirements for Space Only Stands.
