Access to Performance
Tramshed is not currently equipped with a hearing induction loop but this is something we are looking at bringing into the venue soon. At present we do not offer any assisted performance options, but this is something we are exploring. We do have a lowered area of the bar in our upstairs bar which is located close to the viewing area, but our staff are always willing to help in any way they can.
Assistance Dogs
We welcome assistance dogs into the venue and will happily provide a bowl of water if needed. However, not all events are suitable so please contact us beforehand. We may be able to offer a location where the dog could stay during the gig, but please get in touch to discuss this further.

Lighting varies depending on the event but there will be signs up at the venue during the event stating if Strobe lighting will be used within a show. Please contact us and if we are aware that strobe lighting will be used in a performance we will let you know.

Safety and Security
The ongoing safety of our customers, staff and performers is of absolute paramount importance, so if you’re visiting one of our venues, please take a moment to read the below information.
Security
Our management and security teams regularly review procedure and protocol with all staff. As with every live event, all arrangements are in continuous consultation and review with local authorities and the police. There are lots of things that go on behind the scenes, too: training exercises; new security measures – so please be patient if things take a little longer than you’re used to.
Your visit
Our venues are monitored at all times, but please can we ask for your help by arriving in good time, as we carry out security searches on entry.
Speak to us
If at any time you see or hear anything untoward, please speak to a member of our team – we’re here to help.
Travel light
Please plan ahead and do your best to travel as lightly as possible. Searches are in place, and we really don’t want to slow you down getting in. So if you really, really need to bring a bag, please make sure that it’s small, less than laptop size or just a small handbag.
Thank you.
