FAQs
- Can I buy tickets on the day?
Yes, but it's encouraged to book in advance to avoid missing out!
- Does Netherworld's Lost Souls have any accessibility issues?
Authors & Adventure and Netherworld staff have coordinated to provide the best possible experience for those requiring disability access. Lost Souls Karaoke is accessible from an external door, at street level, which leads straight into the lobby area and the workshop space.
Netherworld itself has a front step that will prohibit those with mobility concerns. Those with sensory overstimulation concerns will also encounter problems with the bar/arcade itself, as it is very loud and heavily populated.
- What is your policy on drinking in the venue?
Participants are required not to consume alcohol during the session. This is for the benefit and comfort of both convenors and fellow attendees. Failure to follow these guidelines will result in expulsion from the event.
