Hazards
Seating can be quite tight. If you are a person with a disability, mobility issues or reduced vision please drop us a quick message before the event to let us know that you're coming along so we can ensure there's a clear path from entry to your seat and to the bathroom. We are also happy to arrange things so you can remain in the same seat all night. Due to the number of people in attendance, these events can be quite loud. If you have sound sensitivity please take breaks outside when needed and let our hosts know if they can do anything to make the event more comfortable for you.
