Event Accessibility 
Services

Practical accessibility solutions for live events, performances, festivals, meetings and public gatherings.

Live Captioning

Make spoken content visible

in real time.

 

Live captions display spoken words on a screen or personal device, helping Deaf and hard-of-hearing guests follow presentations, performances, panels and conversations.

​

  • AI Captioning — fast, affordable captioning for many live events.

  • CART Captioning — professionally produced captions for situations where a higher level of accuracy is required.​

 

Best for: performances, panels, conferences, meetings, ceremonies and presentations.

Assistive Listening

Make the sound easier to hear and understand.

​

Assistive listening delivers event audio directly to a guest's device or compatible receiver, reducing the impact of distance, background noise and challenging acoustics.

 

TAM can help provide app-based and Auracast-enabled listening options, depending on the venue and event.

​

Best for: theatres, auditoriums, meetings, lectures, worship spaces and live performances.

TAM Hub

One place for your event's accessibility information.

​

The TAM Hub is a mobile-friendly event accessibility page that guests can access through a QR code.

​

It can bring together:

  • Live captioning

  • ASL interpretation

  • Assistive listening

  • Accessibility information

  • Accessible entrances and facilities

  • Event-specific instructions

  • Links and other helpful resources​

 

Best for: festivals, conferences, performances and multi-day events.

ASL Interpretation

Provide accessible communication

for Deaf guests.

​

Professional ASL interpretation can make spoken presentations, performances, meetings and other live programming accessible to Deaf ASL users.

TAM can coordinate interpretation services based on the event's requirements.

​

Best for: performances, ceremonies, conferences, public meetings and special events.

Described Audio

​

Make visual information

accessible through sound.

​

Audio description provides spoken descriptions of important visual information that may not otherwise be accessible to guests who are blind or have low vision.

Depending on the event, description can be delivered through an assistive listening system or personal device.

​

Best for: theatre, film, presentations, exhibitions and other visually driven experiences.

Accessible Event Information

Help guests know what to expect

before they arrive.

​

Clear, practical accessibility information can make the difference between someone deciding to attend — or deciding not to.

 

TAM can help organizations identify and communicate information such as:

​

  • Accessible entrances

  • Accessible seating

  • Washrooms

  • Parking and drop-off

  • Service animal information

  • Sensory considerations

  • Assistive listening availability

  • Captioning and ASL availability

  • Who to contact for accessibility questions

 

Best for: any public event.

Accessible

Event Content

Give guests the information they need

in an accessible format.

​

Accessibility doesn't begin when the event starts. Event information should be easy to find and usable before guests arrive.

 

TAM can help organizations consider accessibility across:

​

  • Event websites

  • Digital programs

  • Schedules

  • Maps

  • Registration information

  • Accessibility instructions

  • Pre-event communications
