Additional information
The Iris is unfortunately inaccessible to people with limited mobility due to three fairly steep stairs. This means a ramp is too sheer, and not possible for the venue. To accomodate, we have three seats available above the stairwell. Although this is not a perfect spot for audience sightlines, at a pinch it means someone with limited mobility could still see the performance.
Adelaide Fringe is committed to continually improving accessibility measures. Please reach out if you have any concerns.
