Access
We’re working to make The Full Shebang as accessible and easy as possible for everyone to enjoy.
Here’s what we have in place this year:
-

- Access Ambassadors will be at the event offering a friendly face and assistance to anyone with access-related needs. We also have plenty of stewards on hand to support you.
- An induction loop at the Festival Info Point (located in the Four Seasons Shopping Centre).
- British Sign Language (BSL) Interpreted performances.
- A roaming BSL interpreter on the day – should you require their assistance, please let a member of the team know.
- NEW THIS YEAR – Live Captioning – Find out more and download the Difference Engine app here.
- Live Audio Description for some performances – headsets can be picked up at the Festival Info Point and the Audio Describer will also have a limited number on them. You can also ask an Access Ambassador or steward if you need one. Those performances audio described can be found on the programme listings in the guide.
