Introduction to the venue
We have put together information to support our attendees with accessibility needs.
This includes a venue map and photos, links to content on travel and accommodation, and further information on inclusion. Volunteers at WCEU will also be available to assist you with any queries about access on site.
If you advised on your ticket booking that you had a disability, you should have received an email from our Attendee Services team to help you further. Please do contact us if we can be of help.

During registration, you will be given a printed venue map handout. If you require a large print copy, they will be available too, just ask.
The areas we will be using in the Estrel will be clearly signposted to help you find different locations during the event.
The Estrel is accessible for wheelchair users and it has elevators (lifts) to help you travel to different floors. If you require special assistance, please contact us.
At the event, you can chat to our friendly volunteers, who will be wearing pink WCEU t-shirts, if you have questions or need any help.
