Accessibility at Gosforth Civic Theatre 

Our Theatre is an adaptive space where the layout can change from event to event. Tickets are sold as unreserved seating or standing in the vast majority of cases, so ticket buyers can then choose where they sit, or stand, when they arrive for a show. 

Carer/PA/Essential companion tickets:

These are available for all events. They are limited to one per ticket order and can be booked by emailing info@gosforthcivictheatre.co.uk and quoting the event name, booking reference on your ticket order and information you're comfortable sharing on why a companion ticket is required.

Standing shows

Our standing capacity is up to 300. Our seating rake folds away on the rear wall of the Theatre, opening up the floor for the audience to stand in and take in the performance on stage. At the front of the room, in front of the stage, is a cordoned-off area for wheelchair spaces and ambulant seating for those who need it. 

There are a maximum of four ambulant seats and three wheelchair spaces in this area at a standing event. Tickets for these spaces will be a separate ticket type from general admission and should be visible when buying tickets through gosforthcivictheatre.co.uk. Each of these seats or spaces will come with one extra chair for another valid ticket holder (general admission or companion/PA) who may be accompanying the wheelchair space/ambulant ticket buyer to the event.
