Accessibility
A key objective for all of us at the Lexus Ilkley Open is to ensure that the event is as welcoming, inclusive and accessible as possible, working within the restrictions of a temporary outdoor venue.
If you'd like to see additional facilities at the tournament, or if you have any other personal requirements, please let us know below:
There are a number of wheelchair spaces available on Centre Court which provide space for one wheelchair user accompanied by a carer. Please note that the carer/companion ticket is complimentary.
You can purchase wheelchair and essential companion tickets online ahead of the tournament.
A number of accessible parking spaces are available at the front of the Tournament Car Park with easy access to the main entrance of the tournament. Please make alert a Parking Marshal upon driving in and you will be directed to the allocated spots.
We have accessible toilets, please ask a member of staff for directions on arrival or consult the site map.
No dogs are allowed in the venue, except for certified assistance dogs. Certified assistance dogs are only allowed in the accessible areas on Centre Court. Individuals wishing to access Centre Court with their certified assistance dog must buy a ticket for the accessible area.
As part of our vision of ‘Tennis Opened Up’, we want everyone to feel included at our major events. Sensory bags will be available on-site for collection from our tournament information point.
Each sensory bag contains ear defenders, ear plugs, sunglasses and fidget toys, as pictured. Spectators who would like to use a sensory bag will be required to sign it out from the information point, and then sign it back in upon return.
Information point staff will be on hand to assist with this collection process.
We are a proud supporter of the Hidden Disabilities Sunflower.
If you require assistance-on site, please speak to one of our Volunteers.
