ACCESSIBILITY INFORMATION
Due to on-going renovations at Lincoln Center, please note important changes in accessibility:
The north-south drive between 65th St. and 62nd St. has ceased to be available to vehicular trafffic, and consequently, is unavailable for patron drop-offs under the Terrace of the New York State Theater. The best option for patrons requiring the use of wheelchairs or with limited mobility is to be dropped off on W. 62nd St. at the west end of the Theater prior to Damrosch Park. Patrons exiting vehicles at this location should then proceed north (toward Lincoln Center Plaza) along the side of the Theater and turn right at the west end of the Terrace to reach the main Lobby entrance.
The traditional Wheelchair Entrance will be accessible one half-hour before the start of performances and can be reached by going west on 62nd St. to just beyond the loading dock of the New York State Theater and taking a right into the first driveway. At the bottom of the incline, and just inside the facility, is a place to stop the car, disembark passengers needing a wheelchair or other walking assistance, who can then be admitted through the Wheelchair Entrance. A red telephone just to the right of the doorway will permit you to gain access to the building. Security guards will assist drivers to make a U-turn out of this area so they may proceed to park in one of the Lincoln Center or other area garages.
ASSISTIVE LISTENING DEVICES
Available for Hard of Hearing patrons. For headsets and loops, see the attendant at the coat check. A major credit card or driver’s license is needed as a security deposit.
