Accesibility

Our accessibility concept

The Sommerblut Festival strives to make its website and as many events as possible accessible to people with all different kinds of disabilities.

This is a process, and we are continually working to improve on it.

In developing our new website, we have taken care to set up the various pages in a linear and logical way. We have tried to make the headings and links as expressive as possible. The clear set-up of the pages, fitting contrasts, self-explanatory buttons and large click areas for taking action have simplified use of the site. In addition, filters can be selected to show events based on various disabilities.

Technically the site has been designed to the best of our ability in accordance with the guidelines of the GSA Government-wide Section 508 Accessibility Program and WCAG 2.0 Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. We do not use flash video. Additionally, in the browser the font size may be enlarged.

When selecting locations for our events we make sure that there is accessibility for people with walking disabilities and people in wheelchairs.

To ensure that our events are accessible to people with hearing disabilities, we offer interpretation by an interpreter for German Sign Language at selected performances. At some locations the use of an inductive loop is available.

For people with a learning disability, some events are translated into simple language.

Audio description is available for people with visual disabilities at selected events.

Which events will have which accessibility on which dates is indicated on the page where the event is described in detail.
