Around the  building

We’re on a mission to make sure the extraordinary mix of the arts we share is matched by the extraordinary mix of people who share it with us. With our new building we’re here to open the doors wider than ever before.

Your Visit

We've made our building as accessible as possible. If you have any concerns or access requirements, please contact The Box Office and we will be able to advise you accordingly. Find out where the accessible parking is. See the venue access guides we've created with AccessAble.
