Your visit
Make yourself at home in our new space
The Nest is our new venue - you'll find us between the Festival Theatre and Northgate Car Park amongst the trees on the CFT site. The Nest has 120 seats which are unreserved, general admission - so get here early if you want your pick of the seats!
There is an entry ramp leading to The Nest from the walkway of the CFT site and we have two wheelchair spaces in The Nest. We have an accessible toilet with baby changing facilities, and one other toilet - you're also welcome to pop across the road to the Minerva Theatre and use the toilets there too.
We have a bar at The Nest which opens 45 minutes before the show starts so you can grab a drink before heading in. The bar is located in our small but perfectly formed front of house space which is open to the elements, we also have some seats and tables on our outdoor decking space when the weather allows.
Looking for a bite to eat? You can grab food from other outlets on the CFT site, some do require booking, head to this page for more information about what's on offer at CFT and the opening times.
We're tight on space at The Nest and don't have a cloakroom or space for luggage or big bags, so please pack light.
If you have any queries during your visit please do speak to one of our friendly Front of House staff.

This £1 goes directly to Ecologi to support carbon-offsetting projects and international tree-planting programmes. Read more about this partnership here.
Parking
Northgate Car Park (PO19 6AA) is a 900-space council-run pay and display car park right on our doorstep, which charges from 8am until 8pm Monday - Saturday and 10am until 5pm on Sundays. You can pay by cash, card and contactless and the MiPermit app - chichester.gov.uk/mipermit
As we're so conveniently located, the car park can get very busy, and often full with city centre shoppers as well as our audiences. Allow plenty of time to park (especially if you're coming to a matinee!) and consider alternative car parks in Chichester. You can find all options at chichester.gov.uk/parking.
Parking for disabled patrons
If you have a Blue Badge you can park anywhere in Northgate Car Park free of charge. There are 8 non-reservable spaces close to the Theatre entrance. Visit Chichester District Council for other available car parks.
We have a 'drop off' area in front of the Theatres, which you can access from the Broyle Road entrance.
