ACCESSIBILITY

Good Things Festival is committed to providing an event that has been adapted to be accessed & experienced by one and all. Following the 2023 event, a national accessibility consultant was engaged to conduct a review of our accessibility policies and future initiatives, we continue to innovate to deliver the best experience for all fans.

We ask that you please contact us so we can provide you with details specific to your needs further to the information below to see if there are any additional accommodations we may be able to implement and better your experience at the festival.
