Overview

The circus itself is amazing, we went as part of my child’s home education and weren’t expecting it to be as much fun as it was. Absolutely awesome show. Due to Covid the main entrance is closed, but they have a put a temporary ramp up on the promenade entrance. It’s a tiny bit tricky, but they will help. As soon as we got in, security diverted us from the queue round to the accessible entrance inside. Great view from the accessible area, and it has a lovely dedicated staff member. Lots of flat space, and chairs available for family/carers so we could sit together (there were just 2 of us though not sure if a whole family can) Changing Places Room - a bit of a distance away, but staff will take you (they even moved a huge crowd of people out of the way!) it has a toilet, a mobile manual hoist (Oxford mini) and a full hospital bed. We didn’t see them, but there are quite a few ‘standard’ accessible toilets too. Several people there used scooters and these were stored safely. I don’t think there are a lot of wheelchair spaces (to be fair it was built in 1894!) so you need to book in advance.
