Throughout the day interpreters will be working alongside our hosts to offer BSL provision for the stage.
ACCESSIBLE VIEWING POINT – IN FRONT OF THE MAIN STAGE
Providing space for those that need it with a great view of the action – this is very close to the stage so expect it to be loud – the viewing area will be closed before and for the duration of any pyrotechnic effects for safety purposes.
AUDIO DESCRIPTION – THE MAIN STAGE
VARIOUS TIMES BETWEEN 12PM – 6PM
Audio Described tracks will be available via a QR code at our access hub on the day of the festival. Please ensure you have a device and headphones to listen to the tracks. If you need any assistance accessing this, just ask one of our access hosts.
If you would like assistance accessing our British Sign Language or Audio Description services – please drop by our Access Hubs and speak to our Access Hosts who can be found wearing yellow hats.
