Planning Your Visit

Parking

Coaches and buses can park at the front of Civic Square, between the Legislative Assembly and the Canberra Museum and Gallery (CMAG). Smaller buses, vans and private cars can use public metered parking on either side of the theatre.

Arrive Early

We recommend you arrive at least half an hour before the advertised performance start time in order to locate your seats and make use of the venue’s facilities. Schools will be seated in order of arrival. Latecomers should call the Box Office on 6275 2700. We will endeavour to admit your group into the auditorium at a suitable break in the performance but in some cases this may not be an option.

School Bags

School bags are not permitted in the auditorium. A free cloaking service is provided to look after your items, but it is much easier if large items such as school bags are left on the bus.

Lunch

Food and drink are permitted in the foyers but cannot be consumed in the auditorium. Packed lunches can be eaten on the steps leading up to the theatre, in Civic Square, or at Glebe Park.

Performance Warnings

CTC makes every effort to communicate performance warnings through marketing, website information and at the time of booking at the Box Office. Unlike movies, theatrical performances do not have imposed age limits for adult content. It is up to the teacher to make judgements about age appropriateness. If you have any concerns, please ask at the time of booking.

Risk Assessment

A risk management document will be emailed to you upon booking and can also be accessed on the School Bookings page at canberratheatrecentre.com.au/education
