Access Information for The King’s School

Arrival at the venue
Please use the Senior Car Park (marked 3 on the above map). The distance from bottom of the Senior Car Park to the main entrance doors is 200m, over a small bridge which will be lit at night. Customers with access needs, plus those arriving in taxis and coaches, can be dropped off at the Boulevard (marked 5 on the above map), directly opposite the main entrance doors, 150m away on a slight slope down. Please note that anyone being dropped off by a personal car will need to ensure the car is then parked in the Senior car park before the concert. Doors will open at 7.00pm to allow time to enter and sit down before the concert.

Please use the Main Entrance (marked 4 on the above map) for entrance to the building. At this point, you will need to show your tickets; either printed out or, ideally, displayed on your mobile. You will be able to pick up your free programme at the entrance (donations are welcome).

Card payments are accepted on the door. If you are paying cash for your ticket on the door, please try to bring the correct change. We do advise that you book in advance to guarantee your seat, and you can do this by visiting www.ncorch.co.uk/concerts Online booking closes at 12pm on the day of the concert.

Please allow time to have your ticket checked and arrive by 7.20pm at the latest. As these are school premises, we are required to record everyone onsite and this may lead to delays on entry.

There will be a donations bar serving wine, coffee and tea at the interval and the Friends will host post-concert drinks for their members. There is some seating available in the bar area.

Accessibility
There is level access (no steps) from the car park to the auditorium. There are two accessible toilets in the building and the auditorium has a hearing loop.

The front two rows (AA and BB) of the auditorium do not have steps up to them. Rows further back have steps, and there is no handrail.
