Red Chair Event FAQs
Is the venue accessible?
Most venues we work with offer basic accessibility features such as step-free entry, wheelchair access and accessible toilets, but facilities vary from place to place. Because Red Chair events tour to a wide range of regional halls, theatres and community spaces, not all venues have the same accessibility features, particularly smaller or heritage-listed buildings.
Before booking, we recommend checking the venue’s accessibility information on the ticketing website via the venue Book Now link to confirm what is available (for example wheelchair spaces, companion seating or ramps). This will help ensure the most comfortable experience for you and your guests.
If you have specific access needs and would like assistance planning your visit, please get in touch and we’ll be happy to help.
Companion Card Tickets
Companion Card tickets are available for all Red Chair events. The Companion Card program supports people living with a disability who require attendant care to participate in community activities, ensuring they can bring a companion at no extra cost. To book, please contact us at hello@redchair.com.au
Is food and drinks available?
It depends on the venue. Some offer a bar and food, while others allow you to bring your own nibbles and refreshments. Check the ticketing page via the venue Book Now link for venue-specific details.
Can I take photos or videos?
Yes, at most venues you’re welcome to take photos and videos during the concert. Flash is not permitted, and we ask that you’re mindful not to disturb your fellow audience members. If you share your snaps on social media, please tag us — Facebook @RedChairEvents and Instagram @redchairevents.
I loved the show… what’s the best way to spread the word?
We’re so glad you enjoyed it! Word of mouth is one of the best ways to support a show. You might like to tell friends and family, share a Red Chair post on Facebook, post a photo on Instagram, invite friends to the Facebook event, or share the event link. Thank you!
Is the seating reserved?
Seating is reserved at some venues. Check the ticketing page via the venue Book Now link to confirm. Where seating isn’t reserved, doors open 30 minutes before the advertised start time. We recommend arriving early if you have a preferred spot.
What is the refund policy?
For refund details, visit the ticketing page via the venue Book Now link.
