Access

The Village Storytelling Centre is committed to improving access, so that a greater diversity of people can enjoy our festival. We are committed to sustainably improving accessibility over time. We know that there’s a lot to learn and we are keen to learn as we go. We would like to hear if you have advice or feedback – about what we’re doing well and about what we could do differently to help you access events.

Quieter Space

We’re keen to have a quiet (or at least quiet-er) space available during the festival, for anyone who would value taking some quiet time out. We will provide updates in later marketing materials and on social media. Closer to the time of the festival, you’ll also be able to find this information by contacting the festival venue, the Boardwalk.
