Accessibility
These visitor tips aspire to make everybody feel at home at the festival, regardless of needs, identities or spoken language.
Accessibility for people with reduced mobility
The pictograms below help you identify venues that are wheelchair accessible, either independently or with assistance. For access to certain places, it will be necessary for wheelchair users to inform us of your visit in advance. This can be done when making your reservation online, by email or by phone. Our team will then take care of informing the venue that will welcome you.
Please do not hesitate to contact our box office team in case of doubt or if you have a particular need (tickets@kfda.be – +32 (0)2 210 87 37).

Languages and surtitles
Our communication is multilingual and we try to provide our information in French, Dutch and English as often as possible.
Surtitles
Each performance is surtitled in French, Dutch and/or English, depending on the language of the production. Spoken and surtitled languages are indicated on the dedicated event page.
Performances interpreted in Sign Language
Attend a performance interpreted in Sign Language! One of the performances of Les jours de mon abandon by Gaia Saitta is accessible to Deaf and hearing-impaired people thanks to interpretation in Sign Language of French-Speaking Belgium (LSFB), and one of the performances of La vie secrète des vieux by Mohamed El Khatib will be interpreted in Flemish Sign Language (VGT). During these performances, the interpreter is situated at the side of the stage, facing the people who wish to benefit from it.
