Developed by UK live music accessibility charity Attitude is Everything, this series of guides is designed to help venues, promoters, bands, festivals and artists make events more accessible.
Inside you'll find advice on everything you need to make your event accessible to the widest possible audience – from tips on how to improve the experience for disabled gig-goers at an inaccessible venue, to advice on how to promote your event accessibly both on and offline.
With our support, the guides have been translated into multiple languages, which you can download free of charge at the bottom of this page.
Access to live music for disabled audiences
In this film, two contrasting organisations, Glastonbury Festival and Band on the Wall outline their approaches and perspectives on how live music organisations can become more accessible. Both organisations have attained the 'Gold Standard' on Attitude is Everything's Charter of Best Practice.
'This guide has all the vital information needed to engage with disabled audiences and artists, making it a must read for all bands and promoters'
