Review Accessibility Standards for Disabled Guests at Concert Venues — 22 signatures. Status: open.
Require concert venues and ticket providers to provide equal access for disabled guests. Review fairness of ticketing, suitable accessible seating, enforced visibility protections, trained accessibility staff, and mandate refunds where accessibility failures prevent enjoyment of events.
Disabled concertgoers often face barriers when booking tickets and attending events. Accessible tickets may be harder to obtain, unavailable online, or released later than general tickets. Accessible seating can have poor views or be obstructed by standing spectators. Venues vary in how they manage these issues, leaving disabled guests with an inconsistent experience. Clear legal standards are needed to ensure equal access, fair treatment, and proper support at live events.
