Portland Panorama is deeply committed to accessibility and is proactively taking steps to create accessible and inclusive experiences for our community. This includes sharing clear and transparent information related to our venues, films and events. Through these efforts, we aim to ensure that all festival-goers can safely and easily engage with our programming and contribute to the vibrant cultural exchange that defines Portland Panorama.

We are committed to continually improving our festival's accessibility, while actively working to make our spaces safer and fostering an environment where learning and growth are encouraged. We welcome feedback as we work to remove barriers for our audiences. 

Theaters and Accessibility 

• Cinema 21:  The main floor level auditorium is wheelchair-accessible, as are their two lower level screens (via lift or gradual ramp). Both restrooms  are wheelchair accessible. Patrons are welcome to use the restroom that best aligns with their gender identity. They also have a gender neutral bathroom on the main floor lobby, however, it is not ADA accessible. 

• Hollywood Theater: As a historical building, the Hollywood Theatre is limited in its ability to meet ADA requirements, though they remain committed to servicing patrons with different mobility whenever possible. The main floor auditorium is ground level and wheelchair-accessible. However, their two upstairs auditoriums are not. Restrooms are not currently wheelchair accessible, although Hollywood Theatre patrons are welcome to use the ADA-compliant restrooms at Sizzle Pie, located in the same building as the theater. Seat cushions are 20” wide x 19” deep. Except for aisle seats, armrests are not fixed and can be raised. There is 16” of space between the end of the seat cushion and to the back of the seat immediately in front. 

COVID-19 Safety Guidelines

• We believe that clear communication is key to maintaining trust and ensuring safety. Masking and social distancing are strongly recommended for folks who are able. 

• Free masks will be available at all venues. This is a collective effort, and we thank you for your commitment to keeping our festival space safe, welcoming, and inclusive.

Accessibility Requests

To submit a request for access services such as ASL interpretation, audio description or CART please contact: info@portlandpanorama.org

If possible, please submit an access request at least two weeks before the event. This will give us time to coordinate services and better serve you. Due to limited resources, we cannot ensure that the request will be fulfilled. However, we will do our best to honor each one that we receive.
