We want to make it easy and comfortable for people with accessibility needs to come to the Festival. The Access Services tent can be found across the path from the Food Area; Access Services volunteers can also be found throughout the Festival grounds.

Here’s what we offer:

• A vehicle drop-off area for people with disabilities.
• An Access Services gate dedicated exclusively to patrons with disabilities or mobility issues; advanced tickets are required for the use of the Access Services gate.
• Limited parking, for people with a designated Provincial Access Parking Permit, is located near the Access Services gate, at the west end of West 2nd Avenue, just left off Wallace Street.
• Site maps, a list of our services, and large-print versions of the performers’ schedules are available at the Access Services Gate on West 2nd Avenue and at the Main Gate on West 4th Avenue.
• There are ramped, accessible washrooms.
• On site assistance is available at the Access Services tent and the Access Services gate.
• Companion ticket policy: when a person with a disability or mobility issue purchases a full-price ticket (weekend or day ticket) they may bring an attendant or companion at no charge.
• Seating for people with disabilities, and their companions, is available at a raised and covered platform located near the middle of the Evening Concert Stage audience.
• Roped off viewing areas for disabled patrons and their companions are located at some daytime stages.
• Wheelchairs may be borrowed from the Access Services tent where a private rest area is also available.

HandyDART service pick-ups and drop-offs will be located on the west end of West 2nd Avenue, at the Access Services gate. Please note: HandyDART service must be pre-booked; see the HandyDART website  for more information.
