Information for Public on the Red Carpet in 2012

There will be no access to the public viewing area without a wristband.
Wristbands will be available from the public queuing area under the colonnades of the Theatre Royal on Russell Street from 8am on Sunday 12 February.
Tents will not be permitted under the colonnades as they restrict the public footpath
For disabled access please contact Nia Childs (see below)
The public viewing areas will be filled from approximately 3pm by security.
Wristbands will be issued by security on a first come, first served basis. The wristband will be placed on the spectator’s wrist immediately and will not be transferrable.
BAFTA security will give instructions on the day to help you safely into the viewing areas. They will be dressed in high visibility jackets therefore easy to identify. Please listen to their instructions.
There will be random bag searches of all public in the viewing areas in operation so we advise you to bring as little baggage as possible.
Please remember that BAFTA cannot guarantee the weather – please dress appropriately!

Disabled Access to the Public Viewing Area

There are 20 spaces available in the disabled area on the Red Carpet. These places will be issued on a first come, first serve basis. All disabled guests should contact Nia Childs ( info@bafta.org ) to apply for a place in the viewing area.

On the day of the awards, disabled guests who have a confirmed space in the area should meet at 16.00 by the clothing store East, located in the Covent Garden Piazza. Here you will be issued a wristband by BAFTA security and escorted to the viewing area.
