Access Information
Although The Rio Cinema is an old building, which presents access challenges, it is fully accessible to disabled patrons, as well as wheelchair users.

Cinemas
Please book your wheelchair seat in advance to avoid disappointment. This will help us allocate adjoining seats for any companions.
We’ll make every effort to accommodate customers who have not made a prior booking and if you wish to take your seat unassisted, wheelchairs or scooters can be stored in the foyer. If you need any further information or assistance, please speak to the staff or manager on duty.
Screen 1
There are two wheelchair spaces available in Screen 1, our biggest and historical main auditorium. Five additional spaces can be created - subject to availability - if you book at least 24 hours in advance. The entrance to the auditorium is wide and all our wheelchair spaces are easily accessible. The two widest emergency exits from the auditorium are located at the back of the auditorium, on the left and right sides.
Screen 2
Our newly built second screen is situated in the Rio’s basement and is accessible via stairs and lift. It has one space for wheelchair users.
Please let us know if you require a wheelchair space when booking so we can ensure it is reserved for you.
As it is a small screen, please make sure to book in advance to avoid disappointment!
You can do this in person, by calling 020 7241 9410 and pressing 2 to speak to a member of staff, or emailing manager@riocinema.org.uk
