News Story
Want to see that show but there’s no public transport to get you home? Wish you could get to the theatre more sustainably? Travelling by train but finding the walk to CFT tricky?
Well you're in luck! Our ‘CFT Theatre Bus’ is back for Winter 2024/25: helping to reduce transport challenges and enable more people to see a show in Chichester through a free dedicated bus from Selsey, Pagham and Chichester Railway Station for selected productions.
Spurred on by regular theatregoers who find they can’t get to the Theatre easily unless travelling by car, we’re delighted to be collaborating once again with brilliant local community transport organisations Chichester Book-a-Bus, Community Transport Sussex, Selsey Venture Club and the Pagham and District Residents Association, to relaunch this accessible free initiative.
If you have any questions or to find out more, call our friendly Box Office team on 01243 781312 or contact [email protected].
The Theatre Bus offers free transport from specific locations. Spaces must be pre-booked and are allocated on a first come first served basis when tickets are purchased from CFT’s Box Office by phone or in person. Discounts and concessions on tickets are available on selected performances. All transport is accessible to wheelchair users who can be dropped at their home address. Pick up and drop off locations will be announced shortly. CFT is not responsible for any delays to buses, trains or transport networks.
