Wheelchair Users and Bookers

Wheelchair spaces and designated transfer seats

Pre-book through the box office or book wheelchair spaces online when you sign up to our Access Register. Contact the box office to update your record. 

The spaces located in row T are best for anyone using a mobility scooter or large motorised wheelchair. They are slightly raised and offer a great view of the stage.  When booking a wheelchair space, the seat that is currently in place is removed leaving plenty of room to use.
