Programme filter

The programme overview provides the option to filter by accessibility, allowing you to quickly get a first impression of the programme tailored to your wishes and needs. Below is an explanation of the different terms and options.

Please note: If there is no text under ‘Accessible for’ in the left column of a performance, then the location or performance is not adapted. The audience effort indicates the distance to a performance.

Transportation

The boats of Rederij Doeksen are wheelchair accessible and suitable for people with limited mobility. Read more about accessibility at Rederij Doeksen at their website.

Most visitors use a bicycle during Oerol to attend performances. Do you have limited mobility or are the distances too far to cover with a wheelchair? Consider bringing adapted means of transport such as a mobility scooter on the boat. There are limited possibilities to arrange adapted transport on Terschelling. You can inquire at, for example, Fietsverhuur Zeelen, Rijwielverhuur Thijs Knop, Fietsverhuur & Rijwielhandel De Groot or Haantjes Rijwielverhuur about the possibilities.

Parking with a disabled parking card is free at designated parking areas. Because part of Terschelling is not accessible to cars without a permit, shuttle transport can be requested. Please contact us via the contact form at the bottom of this page.

The public transport buses on Terschelling are mostly wheelchair accessible.
