Accessibility
Seating is not available in our concert halls. Both halls are accessible for wheelchair users but there is no room for placements. So if you arrive as a wheelchair user and there is already (a lot of) other audience members present, there is no possibility to reach certain places with the wheelchair (think in front of/near the stage). There are wheelchair accessible toilets. However, again, these are difficult to reach from a full auditorium when it is crowded. In addition, we would like to stress that the lift will become inoperative in case of fire evacuation, making it more difficult to evacuate wheelchair users from the balcony.
Wheelchair ramp
From the parking Sphinx site, walk north on Boschstraat. At the intersection with the traffic lights, turn right (immediately after the bicycle parking). Then immediately turn right again (immediately after the white building), towards the back of the building (navigate to Richie Backfireplein 10, via Fransensingel). Here you’ll find the entrance to the Muziekgieterij. It is accessible via the wheelchair ramp. If you have any questions, contact us.

There is no seating available in our concert rooms. Both rooms are accessible for wheelchair users but placements cannot be taken into account. So if you arrive as a wheelchair user and there are already (many) other visitors present, there is no possibility to reach certain places with the wheelchair (think in front of/near the stage). In addition, we would like to stress that the lift will become inoperative in case of fire evacuation, making it more difficult to evacuate wheelchair users from the balcony.
Wheelchair toilets are available. Again, however, these are difficult to reach from a crowded room when it is packed. Mobility scooters are not allowed in the halls due to their motorised nature. In case of evacuation, it is not possible to evacuate mobility scooters quickly.
