    Easy to contact?

    Yep, they’re easy to get hold of via X, Bluesky, or through the contact form on the website.

    Any other info:

    Resurgence really is the gold standard of UK wrestling promotions when it comes to providing information on accessibility. Extensive information about the venue is available on their ticket pages and on their social media prior to each show, including information on how to get to the venue, where Blue Badge holders should park, whether there’s likely to be issues with travel, and more.

    They offer early accessible entry, ten minutes before general entry, and also have ear defenders and a chill-out space available for anyone who needs them.

    When we’ve had feedback about the venue issues, they’ve been happy to chat about it with us and make changes based on our experience.

    Other promotions should be taking notes.
