Accessibility
The GABBF has been conscious of our attendees with disabilities. We have a handicap-accessible parking lot on Centre College's campus, located at the back of campus at the corner of Maple Ave/Walnut Street. We then also provide golf cart shuttles, free of charge, from the parking lots to the main stage area. We offer handicap-accessible bathrooms. We are happy to individualize an accessibility plan to suit your needs. Please do not hesitate to call us with questions, concerns, or ideas.
We have a number of volunteer opportunities for people with mobility concerns, hearing impairment, and mild intellectual disabilities. Contact us for full details.
