Want to see that show but there’s no public transport to get you home? Wish you could get to the theatre more sustainably? Travelling by train but finding the walk to CFT tricky?
CFT is trialling a new free venture, nattily called ‘CFT Theatre Bus’, to reduce transport challenges and enable more people to see a show in Chichester through a free dedicated bus from Selsey, the Bourne villages and Chichester Railway Station for four productions this Winter.
Spurred on by regular theatre goers who find they can’t get to the Theatre easily unless travelling by car, we’re delighted to be collaborating with brilliant local community transport organisations Chichester Book-a-Bus, Community Transport Sussex, Selsey Venture Club and the Bourne Community Bus, to launch this accessible trial initiative.
Check out the CFT Theatre Bus schedule here. And if you have any questions or to find out more, call our friendly Box Office team on 01243 781312 or contact [email protected].
The Theatre Bus offers free transport from specific locations. Spaces must be pre-booked and are allocated on a first come first served basis when tickets are purchased from CFT’s Box Office by phone or in person. Discounts and concessions on tickets are available on all performances. All transport is accessible to wheelchair users who can be dropped at their home address. Pick up and drop off locations will be announced shortly. CFT is not responsible for any delays to buses, trains or transport networks.
