The accessible entrance is the main lobby door on Poplar Street beside the outside box office, with drop-off at Poplar and Carlisle, and an elevator by the inside box office reaches every level except the Loge. Accessible parking in Lot A is first come, first served and requires a visible state plate or placard; guests without one can be dropped at Broad and Poplar and use general parking. Assistive-listening devices need at least two days' notice and interpreters at least two weeks, both arranged with the box office in advance.

Artist merchandise is sold at a stand in the lobby, and merchandise stands take major credit cards. The venue treats the goods as the artist's, so size and condition should be checked at the stand; it will not replace or refund items after the event.
