Catching a show?
Here are some things to note.
Generally, latecomers will not be admitted once the performance has begun. There may be exceptions to this depending on the nature of the performance.
We conduct checks on all bags and items brought into the performance venues for everyone’s safety. You’re encouraged to deposit your bulky items or plastic carriers at baggage carts outside the performance venue so that all audiences can get to their seats easily and quietly.
For safety and security reasons, these are not allowed within the Theatre or Concert Hall. In other performance venues, this is subject to the artists’ consent.
Esplanade is committed to being a performing arts centre for all, and to delivering the best service possible to everyone. We believe in a culture of mutual understanding and respect even as we have differing opinions and expectations, and are committed to the safety and security of our visitors, patrons and staff within the centre.
