WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE SEATING

The Wheeler Opera House’s Orchestra level seating has designated wheelchair spaces. Companion seating is available upon request. There are also designated wheelchair transfer seats with retractable armrests that allow patrons to transfer from a wheelchair to a theater seat with ease. For reserved seated events, these locations are identified on the seating chart.  For general admission events, patrons can select ADA ticket options and indicate accessibility needs when purchasing a ticket.

ASSISTED LISTENING

In the theater, assisted listening is provided by way of a hearing loop system. The hearing loop eliminates background noise, echo, and reverberation for users to bring the event’s audio clearly to their ears.   To use your hearing loop compatible hearing aid, you must have set up the telecoil with your audiologist in advance. If you do not have a hearing aid or know if your telecoil program is activated, please check out one of the venue-provided hearing loop receivers from the Front of House staff.
