    Great space for music

    I’ve been in the Tramway before, but never for a concert. I was very impressed.

    Older venue but still excellent

    Access to the venue and to the wheelchair spaces is good although the aisles do slope and require a little care. excellent view of stage. Disabled toilets are generally easy to get to, but if the audience is large the foyer can be a bit crowded. Any deficiencies are more than compensated for by the attention and consideration of the staff.

    A great exciting cool place with loads of good access

    As part of BBC 6Music festival the tramway hosted the day events. I was lucky enough to go on the Sunday seeing a wide range of acts including Father John Misty. The venue was very accessible and inclusive!
