There will be no parking available at Northcroft or Goldwell Parks. We ask everyone to use other town centre parking and then make the short walk to the event site.

Accessibility

Wheelchairs

There is no restriction on wheelchair access but please be aware the ground is uneven. Some of the performance does happen on a lower level, our stewards will do their best to assist people in wheelchairs to be able to see

Blind or partially sighted

The ground will be uneven, there will be elements of scenery on the site, and smoke and effects, which may make it harder for visually impaired audiences. We ask our blind and partially sighted audiences give consideration to whether the performance is suitable for guide dogs given the loud sounds that are pivotal to the performance experience.

Deaf, deafened or hard of hearing

There will be loud music that will probably also produce vibration within the performance, which could enhance the experience for those with hearing impairment.
