Stair Free Access

For customers who require seats with stair free access, there is level access to the Circle row B. However, these seats will not be on the end of an aisle as there are two wheelchair positions situated at the end of the row by the entrance. 

These seats are shown in the image at the bottom of this article highlighted in Blue.

 

Wheelchair Spaces 

For customers who require a wheelchair space and will remain in the wheelchair for the duration of the performance, there are specific locations within the theatre to accommodate this including a companion seat as shown below: 

  • Circle row B 4 & 5
  • Circle row B 1 & Circle row C 1 (companion seat situated behind wheelchair space)

These seats are shown in the image at the bottom of this article highlighted in Red.

 

Wheelchair access to transfer into a venue seat

Unfortunately, there are no suitable seats for customers to directly transfer from a wheelchair into a venue seat. If you are able to negotiate a couple of steps, we would recommend the stair free or limited stairs seats noted above.
