Getting here & parking

Follow signs for the beach, not the seafront. For sat-nav, use postcode NR31 6PP. See our directions and transport information before you travel.

Free on-street parking is available directly outside, although it can become busy. Free coach bays are located outside the theatre and opposite for larger parties.

Arrive a little early: this gives you the best chance of parking close to the step-free seafront entrance.

Seating & layout

Our flexible cabaret-style layout allows us to create wheelchair spaces throughout the auditorium. Please call the Box Office so we can reserve a suitable position and accommodate your requirements safely.

View the seating plan for an overview of the auditorium, then let us know about any seating arrangements when you book and we will be happy to help.

Inclusive programming

We are working towards a wider programme of accessible and inclusive performances. Our plans include captioned performances, relaxed shows tailored for neurodivergent guests and other ways for more people to enjoy live theatre.

This forms part of our longer-term restoration and outreach work. We welcome conversations with audience members who can help shape our future offer.
