How to Apply

Essential Companion Tickets

How Eligibility Is Assessed

Nimbus Disability assesses applications on our behalf. Its trained team reviews the information and supporting evidence provided and allocates symbols representing the applicant's access requirements.

Stow Firework Spectacular does not receive or assess your medical evidence. Nimbus will confirm the relevant access information to us through your registration or Access Card number.

Please apply early. Nimbus approval can take a few days, and you will not be able to book an Essential Companion ticket until your card or pass has been approved and validated.

Free Blindspot Gigs Digital Access Pass

  • You can apply through Nimbus for a free Blindspot Gigs Digital Access Pass. Blindspot Gigs is the organiser of Stow Firework Spectacular, and the pass can be used for all events organised by Blindspot Gigs.
  • During the application, you will be asked to describe the barriers you face and provide relevant supporting evidence.
  • Once approved, you will receive a Digital Access Pass number that can be entered into the TicketSource booking system.
  • The Blindspot Gigs Digital Access Pass is valid for three years and can be used when booking eligible access provisions for all events organised by Blindspot Gigs.

Please only apply if you do not already hold a valid Access Card or Blindspot Gigs Digital Access Pass.
