Default GC Wheelchair access?

Has anyone ever noticed if GC has wheelchair access? I,m thinking of taking my daughter to one of he UK shows and although she isnt disabled gets tired easily due to some treatment shes been having and therefore has been loaned a wheelchair by the hospital. I,d sooner her have this than sit on the ground tbh if she does get tired.

Not specifically, on previous tours from what I remember the entrances are plenty wide enough on the pitch and there would be enough room at the back of the GC. Not sure if the view would be great seated there, although this time around the stage would appear higher than the norm. Best check with the venues however.

She probably wouldnt be sat down too long as she'd be taking a lot of photos but its more of a just in case thing. I did notice a disabled section at Old Trafford in 2011 but it was right at the back of the venue. If theres no decent support(which is looking very likely) we probably wouldnt go in til late on(about 7pm) so wouldnt be stood about too long.

I'd definitely still check with the venue just in case they don't allow it in the GC- they may only be insured to have disabled people/wheelchairs etc.. in designated areas for example.

Hyde Park have a phone number on the BST website, and I guess the others would, so I'd definitely give them a ring before committing.
