Free Carer/Personal Assistant Tickets
Winter Wonderland Manchester welcomes visitors with disability and is committed to providing all guests with a safe and enjoyable experience. As part of this commitment, full-paying disabled visitors to Winter Wonderland Manchester are entitled to one free ticket for their carer/personal assistant.
Free carer tickets can be booked by calling Quaytickets on 0343 320 2893.
To ensure the ticketing process runs smoothly, Winter Wonderland Manchester asks that disabled and carer ticket holders collect their tickets from the on-site box office on the day of the event. There will be a dedicated window from which to collect these tickets to ensure that queuing is kept to a minimum.
Visitors may be asked to provide proof of their disabled/carer status when collecting their tickets. We kindly ask that you bring this with you. This might include:
• Front page of DLA / PIP (no specific rate required)
• Front page of Attendance Allowance letter (no specific rate required)
• Evidence that registered severely sight impaired
• Recognised Assistance Dog ID card
• Documents with a +1 symbol
Winter Wonderland Manchester recognise that the evidence above might not include everyone that has an access requirement and we will be happy to discuss any other requirements on a case by case basis.
Winter Wonderland Manchester would like to thank you for your cooperation and look forward to welcoming you to the event soon.
