Accessibility

We are dedicated to making the arts accessible to all, with spaces and services that support every visitor’s experience.

Ticket Concession Scheme

All Esplanade Presents programmes that offer concessions have ticket concessions for persons with disabilities (PWDs), including but not limited to those with developmental, intellectual or physical disabilities. This concession for PWDs can also be utilised by one accompanying companion.

Special seating arrangements

We accommodate patrons who need accessible seating requirements—including those with mobility challenges and patrons who are blind or have low vision with guide dogs—wherever possible. Wheelchair accessible seating is also available at the venue. However, due to the production requirements of some performances, these arrangements may not always be available.

Support For Different Access Needs

Relaxed Environment performances

A Relaxed Environment (RE) performance is perfect for those who may need to make a noise, move around, or access the toilets during the session. No modifications are made to the performance.

Relaxed Performance

We present relaxed performances for those who would benefit from such environments. Besides our PLAYtime! series of theatre productions for children, Esplanade is looking into expanding the range of relaxed performances so that the arts is accessible for as many people as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the PWD concession scheme applicable to all shows at Esplanade?

Each person with disability is entitled to purchase up to two tickets under the PWDs concession scheme. The additional ticket is meant for the accompanying companion who could be their caregiver.

How many tickets can I purchase under PWDs concession ticket?

Why can't I purchase PWDs concession ticket(s) online on SISTIC?

What supporting documents must I show when buying PWD concession tickets?

No documents are required when buying PWD concession tickets from the SISTIC Counter/ Esplanade Box Office. This also applies to accompanying companions.

However, on the day of the performance, it is best to have any necessary documentation such as relevant eligible cards (DDR ID/ PWD Concession Card/ SSA membership card) with you, in case verification is conducted before entry into the performance venue.

If I have purchased a PWD concession ticket, can I be seated with family/friends who did not buy PWD concession tickets?

Will we be able to leave the theatre mid-way through the relaxed performance? If we decide to, will we be able to return to our seat?

Can people who are not on the autism spectrum or without sensory sensitivities attend a relaxed performance?

What is the recommended age for a PLAYtime! relaxed performance?
