We aim to make our site available to everyone as far as we can. But, the steep, rocky geography of the Minack does create some access limitations. If you have concerns or questions about access, please contact us and we will help in any way we can.
Our Access Facilities
We have step-free access to all upper levels on the site. The main auditorium and stage are only accessible via long flights of steps. The stage and auditorium are visible from our accessible balcony and our viewing platform.
Our car park has accessible parking bays near the theatre entrance. There is step-free access to the visitor centre. Within the site, there is step-free access to the exhibition centre and café, and there is an accessible toilet.
If you’re coming to a performance and would like to use the accessible balcony, please call our Box Office on +44 (0)1736 810181. Spaces are limited, so please book as early as possible.
A hearing loop is available in the Lower Terraces and on our accessible balcony.
We can also provide assistive hearing headsets, suitable for users with or without hearing aids, who may need a little extra boost from our sound.
For public safety and safety of the infant, wheeled buggies and other infant seating (such as car seats) are not admitted to the theatre for performances or visits. We recommend that babies are carried around the theatre in slings and carriers.
Please call the box office or email [email protected] for more details.
Admission for Carers
We offer a ‘no questions’ free ticket for anyone who needs to bring a carer with them to access our site (as visitors or audience). We do not ask for proof of carer needs, and these tickets are not limited to specific areas of the auditorium.
BSL Signed Performances
BSL signing is available free of charge on selected performances at the Minack. If you or a member of your party would like to book for a BSL-signed performance, please contact the Box Office.
Audio Described Performances
Audio description is available by arrangement on selected performances. If you would like to request audio description, please contact the Box Office at the time of booking. More information about Audio Description.
Live Transcription
Public Wi-Fi is available throughout the theatre. If you wish to use your own live transcription app, such as Live Transcribe, Dragon Anywhere or Otter AI, please let us know in advance so that we can ensure you are seated in an area close to a speaker and with good Wi-Fi coverage.
