For each EAT ME event, we aim to provide:
Venue access information
Step-free access details where available
Seating information
Toilet information
Travel/arrival notes
Timings
Content notes where relevant
Sensory information where relevant
Contact details for access questions
-
Access information can change depending on the venue, layout, and type of event.
Each event page will include specific access details, including:
Venue entrance information
Stairs/lifts/step-free access
Toilets
Seating
Lighting and sound
Timings
Content notes
Anything we know might affect comfort, safety, or access
-
Depending on the event and venue, we may be able to help with:
Reserving seating
Early arrival information
Quiet/rest information where available
Clearer written information before the event
Information about lighting, sound and crowd levels
Access questions before booking
Making sure front-of-house/crew know about agreed access support
-
EAT ME often works in existing venues, so some access features are outside our full control. We will try to be clear about:
Whether a venue is step-free
Whether accessible toilets are available
Seating options
Known barriers
Any limits to what we can change
-
Access is not a checklist; it affects who feels welcome, who can perform, who can stay, who can rest, who can ask questions, and who gets to be part of the room. EAT ME is working towards events that are clearer, more flexible, and more welcoming for queer, disabled, neurodivergent, and chronically ill people.
-
You do not need to disclose personal or medical information to ask us an access question. You can contact us about:
Venue access
Seating
Arrival
Timings
Lighting/sound
Rest space
Communication needs
Anything else that would help you decide whether the event is right for you
-
We provide downloadable access information where possible, especially for larger events. Downloads may include:
Event access guide
Large print programme
Plain text access information
Venue information
Easy Read version, where available
ACCESS
EAT ME is queer and disabled-led, so access is part of how we think about events from the get-go.
We know access is not one-size-fits-all. Every venue, event, and person is different, so this page explains our general approach, what information we aim to provide, and how to contact us about access needs.
