Accessibility info:
The York Theatre has not had an accessibility audit. The new renovation to the space was made with the aim of creating a wheelchair accessible space. There are a few options for wheelchair seating (although none on the balcony). Call The Cultch for details. There are stalls marked as wheelchair accessible in the men’s & women’s washrooms; however, these have not been verified by an accessibility auditor.
