EVENT ACCESSIBILITY

Understand the full attendee experience

Accessibility is about more than getting through the door. We look at the entire event journey to understand where access is working and where barriers may exist.

  • Arrival, transportation and entry

  • Navigation, seating and viewing areas

  • Washrooms and amenities

  • Communication access, including ASL and captioning

  • Sensory supports and quiet spaces

  • Service animals and attendant support

  • Safety and emergency planning
