Please remember. While your review may include your own personal opinions, please include as much factual information as you can to describe the venue's disabled friendly features (good and bad). You might feel that it is useful to explain your own level of disability, or whether you are writing from a carer/companion perspective. Thank you for your expert review.

Carling Academy Glasgow takes the needs of disabled customers very seriously and actively encourages people of all abilities to attend the events scheduled at our venue. Though built in 1921, the building has been modernised to allow ramp access from street level to the main auditorium. We do advise customers to arrive at the venue 10 minutes prior to doors and ideally accompanied by an able-bodied person who will be admitted free of charge. You will be escorted to our raised viewing gallery that allows good sight lines for both music and other events.
Carling Academy Glasgow will aim to consistently review and improve its facilities to meet the needs of all our users. Our current amenities include the ramp, a disabled toilet reached via level access from the main auditorium and is accessible with a 'RADAR' key; plus we have first aid room available for customers to use should privacy be required at any point during your visit. Please note access to the balcony and mezzanine bar is via stairs.
Specific requests, enquiries or comments regarding access/personal needs should be made to the Carling Academy Glasgow Management team who will endeavour to accommodate all concerns.
The Blue Star Scheme is the leading ratings scheme for disabled friendly hotels in the UK. The scheme provides simple and objective details about accessibility, and the disabled friendly facilities that are available.
