Accessibility
If something on this list would make the difference between coming and not coming, tell us. We'd rather over-plan than have you stay home.
Step-free access
POST HTX offers step-free entry, elevator access between levels, and accessible restrooms. Accessible parking and a drop-off point sit close to the main entrance.
Seating
Reserved accessible and companion seating is held in every session room, plus seating with clear sightlines to interpreters and screens. Rest seating is available outside the main halls.
Quiet space
A low-stimulation quiet room is open both days — no programming, no pitching, lower lighting and sound. Use it for as long as you need.
Dietary accommodation
Vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, halal and allergy-safe options are available at catered moments. Tell us at least two weeks out so the kitchen can plan for it.
Need ASL interpretation, live captioning, a personal care attendant pass, or anything not listed? Email us and we'll confirm in writing.
