Overview
This is a fantastic family day out! I love the film Brave and to see the music played by a live orchestra was incredible! The Royal Concert Hall is a great venue. The accessibile entrance is at the side of the building and has an automatic door. You then use a platform to access the main foyer. There are two accessible toilets. One is beside the cafe and is often used by everyone so becomes dirty quite quickly; the other is behind the door nearest the cloakroom at the bottom of the main foyer. Both toilets are quite small. There is lift access to the main hall from the main foyer and then different entrance doors acording to your seats The only disappointing thing is that the accessibile seats upstairs are restricted viewing which is difficult if you cannot transfer
Transport & Parking
On the particular day of travel there was disruption on the railway which made my journey more difficult. Always check before you travel. If you are traveling by car there is Concert Square car park, however there is a height restriction for any particularly tall cars. The height restriction is signposted at the entrance to the car park.
Access
There is an automatic door at the accessibile entrance, From here the lifts are well signposted and the staff will happily guide you at any point along the route to the main hall
Toilets
Two accessibile toilets are available. One beside the cafe which tends to be used by everyone. The second one is beside the cloakroom at the bottom of the main foyer. The first entrance to these toilets is unmarked. It is at the end of a long corridor beside other male and female toilets
Staff
Staff are very friendly and helpful and always around the venue to ask for help
Anything else you wish to tell us?
I really enjoyed this visit and the Concert was incredible the only thing that let it down was the restriction in viewing at the accessibile seating
