The Hall 1 entrance foyers provide wheelchair-friendly access and there are lifts to access the First Floor.
Carers
Visitors who require a Carer or Personal Assistant to accompany them to the show can book a free Carer ticket when booking their tickets.
To ensure the system remains beneficial to those who rely on it, the Organiser reserves the right to check a person's eligibility under the Equality Act.
Once you have booked your tickets, you will need to email us with your order reference number and a photo or scan of at least one of the following documents to [email protected] within 7 days. Once your documents have been verified, your Carer ticket(s) will be activated. Please note: if your documents are not received within 7 days, your enire ticket order will be cancelled and refunded.
If you are booking your tickets less than 7 days before your visit, you will not be able to add a Carer ticket to your order. Please book the rest of your tickets, and then email [email protected] with your order confirmation number and proof of eligibility and your Carer ticket will be added to your order.
