Checklist Toegankelijke Evenementen
Een toegankelijk evenement maak je samen – van de eerste programmeerkeuze tot de communicatie en productie. Hier vind je de Checklist Toegankelijke Evenementen uitgesplitst voor producenten, programmamakers en marketeers.
As an organizer, making an event accessible can be quite a challenge. What types of disabilities do you need to take into account? And how do you approach it practically?
The main tool for this is the Accessible Events Checklist - developed together with cultural entrepreneurs, the APCG (Arnhems Platform Chronisch Zieken en Gehandicapten) and the municipality of Arnhem. This checklist helps organizers to determine how far they are already with making their event accessible and where there is still room for improvement.
Checklist by role
You make an accessible event together - from programming to production, from marketing to ticketing. That's why we've broken down the checklist into three job-specific checklists for convenience, tailored to your role. That way, you'll quickly know what you can do to make your event open to all.
🎨 For program makers
Make accessibility a natural part of your artistic choices. With attention to inclusive content, interpreters of Dutch Sign Language, low-stimulation performances and collaboration with creators with disabilities.

Bonus tip!
In our neighboring country, they are already one step further: there is the Accessible Event Label. This quality label from Inter (the Flemish accessibility expertise center) gives organizers tools to make events truly accessible, from accessibility and sanitation to the entire experience. No harm in taking a peek at their brochure and checklist - they offer many practical tips that can also be applied in the Netherlands.
