List the access features at your event

We aim to create events and attractions open and accessible to everyone.

Around 1 in 5 Australians have a permanent disability. If your event offers accessible services, it’s important to let people know. Access information will help people with a disability plan and attract more people to your event.

When choosing your venue, consider the access for people with a disability entering, moving through and exiting the venue. Think about accessible parking and public transport. We encourage you to confirm accessible services and facilities available at your venue.

Good access benefits everyone in the community including people with disability, carers, families with prams and older people.
