Physical access to the venues

  Wheelchair access 

There are 6 wheelchair spaces at both the Alhambra Theatre and St George's Hall. Level access is via Great Horton Road for the Alhambra and via the ramp on Bridge Street for St George's Hall. Please note scooters as outdoor vehicles are not allowed in the venues.

Wheelchair accessible toilets are available at both venues, and there is a low level counter at the Box Office at St George's Hall where you can pre-book and pick up your tickets.

There are 2 platform lifts available at St George's Hall for wheelchair users at standing performances only. The platforms are placed at the back of the auditorium and can be operated by the wheelchair user or carer (there is a staff member on hand to assist and explain the simple procedure in using the lift). Each platform can accommodate 2 wheelchairs and a carer.

Patrons wishing to use this facility can book their tickets in the normal manner mentioning that they would like to use the platform lift. Spaces are strictly allocated in the order tickets are purchased, i.e. on a 'first-come-first-served' basis.

NB. the use of both wheelchair platforms is governed by the technical requirement of the show. You will be advised at time of booking if only one platform is available.

Parking

Designated parking spaces are available for disabled patrons at the Alhambra on Morley Street and on Randall Well Street.

Please access the Morley Street spaces via Great Horton Road at the side of the Alhambra. Drive up to the controlled bollards, press the speech button to talk to the CCTV operator who will request that you show your disabled parking permit, viewed from a camera on the side of the building. For those unable to reach the button, the intercom will activate automatically after a short time. The bollards will be lowered allowing access to the one-way system.

After the show, automatic bollards facilitate your exit via Morley Street. If you are being collected after the performance, please make sure your driver has your parking permit ready to show at the controlled bollards. If you are being collected by taxi, please make yourself known to the House Manager who can arrange for the taxi driver to gain access to the one-way area outside the theatre.

There is a drop-off and pick-up point in the lay-by outside St George's Hall for wheelchair users with easy access up the ramp leading to the stalls level entrance.

Dining

Equipment is available in our restaurants to enhance your dining experience. Please make your request at the time of booking your table.
