Our events aim to be as safe, inclusive, accessible and welcoming as possible.

Our events will always have a wheelchair accessible entrance and accessible toilets, unless explicitly stated otherwise.

There will usually be a videographer and photographer at our events. If you'd prefer not to appear in pictures, please let a member of our team know. 

All of our events offer different pricing options including Concession rates. We do not ask questions - these tickets are available for anyone who needs them at any particular time. 

If you have any particular access requirements or concerns, please email us in advance.

⚠️ CONTENT WARNING ⚠️

Poetry events include performers sharing personal accounts which you may relate to in some way. This may include content that is potentially upsetting or triggering. 

We provide a general content warning at the beginning of each event, and poets may choose to provide one for their own poem if necessary. 

Attendees are welcome to leave the venue at any time and return when they feel comfortable, but please try to do this before/after a poem.

Entry requirements: 16+, any under 18s accompanied by 21+ adult 1:1 ratio
