It's your Festival and we'll do our best to ensure it is inclusive for everyone. We are pleased to present an Access programme (Google Doc, opens in a new tab) for d/Deaf, disabled and neurodivergent audiences, featuring events that are audio described with touch tours, NZSL interpreted and relaxed performances. All events in the Access programme are wheelchair accessible.

There will also be shows at the Festival that may be accessible without any accommodations. The best way to get all the latest information is by going to the Detailed Content, Access and Venue (CAV) notes tab for any show you are interested in.
