What to expect
The Schwarzman Centre is a place for everyone to enjoy, whether you’re part of the University or visiting from the wider community. Our doors are open all day, every day and we look forward to welcoming you. To help make your experience as smooth and enjoyable as possible, we’ve put together some simple visitor guidelines so you’ll know just what to expect when you arrive.
Accessibility
We believe in an Oxford University that’s accessible for everyone. The Schwarzman Centre is open to the public and all University members all day, every day.
In our walls is a café, kitchen, and bar ready to host you, quieter areas to sit, meet, or read, and, of course, spaces home to our ever-changing programme of art, cinema, music, and performance. Whoever you are, we invite you to shape culture, experience the new, or simply pull up a chair at the Schwarzman.
While you’re with us, you can enjoy free Wi-Fi throughout the building. And if you need us for anything at all, our staff can be spotted by their Oxford University passes or uniform.
