Access

Access
Palace Theatre Redditch is committed to access for all and has the following facilities:

Blind & Visually Impaired
If you have an assistance dog, please advice Box Office at the time of booking and they can then allocate the most appropriate seating for you or make adequate provision to care for your dog during the performance.

Deaf and Partially Deaf
BSL Sign Language Interpreted Performances (see performance with the shown logo).
Sign Language is a visual means of communicating using gestures, facial expression and body language. Within Britain the most common form of Sign Language is called British Sign Language (BSL).

Hearing Assisted Facilities
We have induction loop systems throughout the main auditorium, in the Palace Studio, in our Box Office and our Bar. Please select the T position on your hearing devices to access these services.

Babies & Children
The Theatre strongly advises no admission for children under three, except for productions as advised by a ticket sales assistant. We consider Pantomime to be suitable for ages 3 plus and most ballets for 5 plus. In accordance with licensing requirements every person entering the auditorium must be in possession of a valid ticket. Baby changing facilities are available in a room located next to the Ladies toilets on the ground floor.

Impaired Mobility
The theatre has lift access to all front of house areas including the bar, the Palace Studio and main auditorium. Wheelchair users have easy access via automatic doors from our main entrance on Alcester Street. Wheelchair positions are located in most areas of the auditorium and positions available in the Palace Studio.

There are 10 wheelchair spaces in the Auditorium, 8 in the stalls and 2 in the circle. There are 420 seats in the Palace Theatre, Redditch.

Wheelchair Seats 
Customers who require wheelchairs as their primary use of mobility, must book a wheelchair seating position on the allocated seats on the booking plan by calling Box Office on 01527 65203. Wheelchair users for safety and evacuation reasons must not be transferred from a wheelchair to a fixed seat and must remain in their wheelchair to enable safe evacuation of the Theatre.

Please Note: If a patron is unable to attend in a wheelchair and needs to use an electric scooter instead, please notify the Box Office as spaces to accommodate them are limited and subject to space availability. Scooter users for safety and evacuation reasons must not be transferred from a scooter to a fixed seat and must remain in their scooter to enable safe evacuation of the Theatre.

Parking for our Disabled Customers
There is no visitor parking at the Palace Theatre including disabled parking – The nearest pay and display car park is The Quadrant that has level access direct to the Theatre, Quadrant Car Park - 3 min Walk - (https://maps.app.goo.gl/meGvgKiNMo4bkYRp6).

Carer Tickets
The Palace Theatre’s previous Access and Carer scheme is now closed to new applicants. It has been replaced by the Essential Companion scheme, which provides a clearer and more consistent way of supporting patrons who need additional help to attend the theatre.

Any bookings already made under the previous scheme will be honoured. There is no change for performances that have already been booked.
