Very accessible

very accessible and accommodating, good access to the building with ramps all around however if you have a wheelchair it might be worth talking to the staff about parking in the back of the venue as although there are ramps at the front wider chairs may struggle to get around one or two tighter corners after entering. although staff will help with getting you around.
