Accessibility Notice: Unfortunately, due to the limited space and the design of the train, this event is not accessible to individuals in wheelchairs. We would love to welcome everyone, but the narrow corridors and confined spaces on the train make it unsafe for both wheelchair users and other guests trying to navigate the train. There is, however, seating available in the chill-out areas for guests who may need to rest or have di]iculty standing for long periods.
