Overview

Made contact with this venue ahead of time to ask accessibility questions about wheelchair accessibility. They organised a quiet time for me to view the premises and the stages ahead of time, and showed me everything I'd need to know to made an informed decision of what shows to buy tickets for. Only one stage is in-accessible (the basement) as it has a flight of stairs, but it's a very old and small building, so there just isn't space for it. The other two stages are fully accessible, I was offered by security to be let in earlier so I wasn't left out in the cold (which was fantastic). There's a bus stop nearby, and an accessible loo on the entrances floor. Staff are brilliant and receptive to feedback, you can tell they've done a lot of work to make inclusion a forefront issue, and not an after thought. They had drinks seals and earbuds (for sound protect) at the bar, all for free. They had clear house rules, and instructions in the bathrooms on what to do if at any point your don't feel safe and need to talk to someone. Couldn't recommend enough for a good time. I would say the venue is autism and wheelchair accessible, but if you have any questions relating to any other accessibility needs, they communicate brilliantly

Picture of the front of the exchange from the pavement Infront. Both entrances are visible from the front, the one on the corner of the building is open during the day, and the larger door on the left is open during events. When going to a show, queue up on the left. Picture of entrance space inside. This is the view you would have when entering the entrance on the side of the building. On the right is a bar, straight onwards is the disabled toilet. On the left are two entrances to two stages, the main stage is through a set of double doors on the left of the toilet.
