Facilities for the disabled

Parktheater has various facilities for the disabled, such as an elevator, adapted toilet, wheelchair spaces and hearing amplification equipment.

Blind and visually impaired

Several performances are specially accessible for visually impaired visitors. In cooperation with Komt het zien, these are provided with audio description via wireless headphones and an introduction by a blind interpreter. Guide dogs for the blind are welcome.

Disabled and wheelchair spaces

The halls in the Parktheater are accessible by elevator.
If you have difficulty walking, it is advisable to choose seats that minimize the use of stairs. In the Hertog Jan Zaal, these are the seats on rows 17, 18, 19 and 20. In the Philipszaal, rows 1, 2 and 16. We would be happy to advise you! Please contact us by phone at 040- 211 11 22.

Do you use a walker or mobility scooter? Feel free to ask a Parktheater staff member to help you during your visit.

There are also special wheelchair spaces available in all halls. You can watch the performance from your wheelchair. Wheelchair spaces can only be reserved by phone by calling 040- 211 11 22.

If you would like to know more about the layout of our halls, please look at Room plan.

Hearing amplification

All halls of the Parktheater are equipped with a hearing assistance system, the Phonak Roger system. This can be used by the hearing impaired, both those with their own hearing aid and those without, who only wish to have a hearing aid during the performance.
Pick af at the ticket office before the performance.

Parking spaces

Marked disabled parking spaces are available in front of the Parktheater building.

Carefree enjoyment with Celebrate life (65+)

More and more elderly people are reluctant to arrange their own theater visits. Stichting Vier het Leven (Foundation Celebrate Life) organizes cultural activities where everything is arranged for carefree enjoyment. Volunteers pick up the elderly (65+) at home and together they go to a theater performance. Contact Vier het Leven at www.4hetleven.nl or call 035 - 524 51 56.

Going to the theater with children?

It is useful to know that booster seats can be borrowed. These are available at all children's performances in the Hertog Jan Zaal. More information about going to the theater with children.
