Venue Accessibility Checklist

This page is for venue owners and managers. It lists every accessibility feature Only Everywhere tracks, in plain language, so you can tell us — or add to your own listing — everything your venue offers.

Most venues have more accessibility features than they think to mention. Sensory bags at guest services, an induction loop at the box office, loaner wheelchairs, quiet weekday mornings — these are exactly the details that decide whether someone visits. If it’s on this list and you have it, we want it on your listing.

How to use this page: Skim the checklist, then let us know anything we’re missing — a plain sentence per item is fine (“we have two loaner wheelchairs at the front desk”). Or claim your listing and check the boxes yourself; we approve claims quickly and you’ll have a login to keep it current anytime.

Have something that isn’t on this list?

Tell us anyway. Portable stools for galleries, companion seating policies, wheelchair-accessible trolleys, TTY phones — features outside the 32 checkboxes go into your listing’s accessibility description, where visitors (and search engines) read the full story.

Partial availability is worth publishing, not hiding. “Accessible restrooms on the first floor only” or “interpreters need two weeks’ notice” helps visitors plan and prevents bad surprises, which protects your reviews. Tell us the conditions and we’ll present them fairly.

Add a Feature

Several of the most-searched features cost little to add:

  • Sensory Bags — programs like KultureCity supply venue kits and staff training, or assemble your own (headphones, fidgets, sunglasses, feelings cards) for under $50 a bag
  • Designated Low-Crowd Times — costs nothing: pick your quietest recurring hours and publish them
  • Social Narrative — a one-page photo walkthrough of arrival, entry, and facilities; a staff member can make one in an afternoon
  • Large-Print Materials — a large-print version of your menu, map, or program is a print job
  • Staff Sensory Training — free and low-cost training is available from autism and sensory-advocacy organizations

Add one, tell us, and it goes on your listing.

Photos

Listings with official photos perform better. If you have images we’re welcome to publish — or a press kit page — send them along and we’ll credit your venue. Landscape orientation works best; photos showing entrances, pathways, or accessible features are especially useful.
