ACCESSIBILITY
Bus tickets are available by request.
The Victoria Event Centre will be completing a new and detailed accessibility audit at the beginning of December, and is working to improve the accessibility (and accessibility information) of the venue. One of the washrooms has recently been modified to accommodate wheelchairs. The on-site elevator is currently undergoing a recertification process, and until that process is complete we cannot consider the venue to be wheelchair accessible. The VEC will post updates as new information is available.
TERRITORY
This event is taking place within Lkwungen Territory. In respect to this, we strive to maintain and sustain a decolonization framework while we challenge the institutions of capitalism.
