ACCESSIBILITY INFORMATION:
The only entrance this event is using is accessible. There are no stairs to the bathrooms and they are larger than the other standard stalls but do not have a 5'x5' free turning space, allowing for straight in/out only which makes transferring difficult. The bar is located to the left of the stage on the same level as the dance floor.
