Accessible events in 2027

Each year we present a wide range of accessible events within the Festival lineup in March, programmed in consultation with the community. 

Our full accessible programme will be announced in November. If you have any questions before then, please:

Our commitment to accessibility

We believe everyone should have access to extraordinary arts.

Most of our venues have hearing loops, are wheelchair accessible and have accessible toilets and carparks. 

Each year we work with representatives from Deaf and disabled communities, and with the support of Arts Access Aotearoa, to make the Festival more accessible. This includes providing audio description, NZSL interpretation and relaxed performances.

Our award-winning1 Accessibility initiative provides reduced-cost tickets to members of our Deaf and disabled communities. The ticket for their companion is provided for FREE.

1 Te Ahurei Toi o Tāmaki Auckland Arts Festival received the Arts Access Creative New Zealand Arts For All Award in 2018.
