Accessibility
Everyone is welcome at MacArts
Find out how we make our building and events as accessible and inclusive as possible. If you have any concerns or potential barriers to you being able to attend an event or to book tickets, just give us a call on 01896 756852 , email us at [email protected] or drop in and we will see how we can help.
Parking and drop off
We have space in front of the building for step free access to the building. There is blue badge parking close by.
Ramps
MacArts is fully ramped throughout and entry to the building is to the left of the main door. We would like to make the access to the stage ramped as well but that's a bit more complicated.
Toilets
MacArts has a single accessible toilet.
Accessible Viewing platform
For standing events we have a raised seated viewing platform for people with accessibility needs that require a seat. Spaces are allocated on a first come first served basis, so please contact us in advance to ensure we can fit everyone in safely. We have some original pews around the perimeter of the main hall that can be used but these are not reserved.
Free entry for carers
We operate a carers go free system for our own shows. On occasion, some promoters do not allow us to offer this option at their events, so please contact us direct for more details.
Deaf and hearing loss access
Assistance Dogs are welcome at MacArts. We have a hearing loop in the main auditorium.
Visually impaired access
Assistance dogs are welcome at MacArts. Although keep in mind they will be exposed to potentially loud music
Strobe lighting
Strobe lighting is frequently used at MacArts. If you want more information on this, just get in contact
