Simply park directly in front of Music Hall near the ramp area (located next to the box office) and ask a police officer on duty to radio the Music Hall staff. A Music Hall assistant will come to the car and will accompany patrons with special needs into the hall.

Live descriptions of the stage action for people who are visually-impaired are available at all performances. Units are available at the coat room in the south end of the lobby of Music Hall.
