The Octagon (upper)

Wheelchair / Accessible Access

The upper Octagon is a grassed area with a small paved space and stepped seating around the upper side. There are multiple access points to the performance spaces.

There is no limit on the number of wheelchair users who can attend a performance, since the seating is picnic-style.

There are accessible toilets in the lane beside the DCC building.
