Accessibility: planning your Avignon en fête visit
Accessibility arrangements for the event installations are still being confirmed. Use this guide to prepare an enquiry, rather than as confirmation of step-free access.
By the Avignon en fête team. Updated .
Check the whole route
If you use a wheelchair or walking aid, ask about entrances, steps or thresholds, clear width and turning space. Check walking distances, seating and accessible toilets too. These details need to be confirmed for each venue; access to the square alone does not tell you whether the installation will suit your needs.
Explain any other requirements
You can ask about lighting, sound, waiting arrangements and companion access. Share practical information needed for the visit, rather than medical records. The tourist office provides accessibility resources for Avignon. These can help with the wider trip, but they do not replace the event team’s confirmation for a temporary installation.
Before you go
- State the venue and proposed date.
- Ask for confirmation of the arrangements you need.
- Check the route from your parking space or transport stop.
