Accessibility information

Whilst the venue is a heritage Edwardian-era early 1900’s building and contains a couple of large brick/concrete steps at the entrance, we have temporary ramps for wheelchair access if needed, as well as an accessible toilet located in a separate area to the general venue toilets. Once accessed via a temporary ramp, you can move from the foyer to the band room freely on flat ground. A declining floored hallway (almost like one giant long ramp!) joins the main foyer area to the band room. We have two green rooms for artists to choose from as well - one has a few steps to access the room, the other is wheelchair accessible.
