                  The auditorium has seven wheelchair spaces. Wheelchairs are available on request from the central security desk near the box office. At show times, a receptionist is specially assigned to help disabled people get around. However, it will not be possible to remain seated in this area during the show.

                  The Wilfrid-Pelletier Theatre is equipped with a tuning system that allows the hearing-impaired to pick up the show's signal: 90.9 FM. You can bring your own radio/balad player with headphones, or borrow one from the hall supervisor.
