PLAN YOUR VISIT
WHEN TO ARRIVE
Try to arrive 30 minutes before the performance to allow your child to transition, have a snack, and use the washroom.
Doors open 10 -15 minutes before the show.
LATECOMERS
Given that the show is under 60 minutes, we cannot guarantee we can admit latecomers.
SEATING ARRANGEMENTS
All shows have general seating.
We will seat families with infants close to the aisle or exit just in case the baby is fussy and to avoid disrupting the show for others.
- If you have access needs please do not hesitate to contact us at boxoffice@weefestival.ca
STROLLERS, MOBILITY DEVICES
- There is space for strollers at the venue.
AFTER THE SHOW
We will have spaces for arts activities after the show to allow your child to reflect and draw so if you can linger, please do!
We do not have paper programs but will have a display with show information and our social handles so you can tell everyone how much fun you had.
FOOD & DRINK
Unfortunately, we cannot allow food and drink inside the theatre. Small water bottles are welcome. LARGE metal bottles are not. They drop, make a loud sound and roll under the seats.
All venues at WeeFestival are breast and bottle feeding friendly.
PHOTOGRAPHY
There is absolutely no photography or recording of any kind allowed during the performance with the exception of official photography undertaken by the festival.
Don’t worry! There will be time at the end of each show for pictures!
However, when you attend this event, you enter an area where professional photography, audio, and video recording may occur. By entering the event premises, you consent to such recording media and its release, publication, exhibition or reproduction.
