Access information

Toilets and facilities

You can find more details about our facilities and accessing the different spaces on the Middlesbrough Town Hall website.

Pushchair policy

Due to Middlesbrough Town Hall’s fire regulation policies pushchairs, prams and car seats must be left in our dedicated ‘buggy parking’ zone on the carriageway and can’t be taken into any of the event spaces.

Unfortunately we can’t take responsibility for items left there, but we do our best to keep an eye on them.

Relaxed setting

All our family events take place in a relaxed environment, and have the following features:

  • lower volume levels throughout the event
  • consistent lighting, with low level auditorium lights on throughout
  • our musicians and facilitators have relaxed attitude to noise and moving around the space
  • a quiet, chill out space will be available should you need a break

Ear defenders

Our younger visitors can find a busy venue and loud musical activities quite overwhelming. A limited number of ear defenders are available from the Box Office – by the main entrance on Albert Road. See us as early as possible to secure a pair.
