Public Transit, Parking & Accessibility

The North/Clybourn Red Line station is within 0.2 miles of NEWCITY, but is not a physically accessible station as it does not have an elevator. The #8 CTA bus has a stop 400 feet from the venue, and the #9 and #72 CTA buses are 0.2 miles away.

There is a parking garage attached to the building, with specific spots designated for those using mobility devices. The garage elevator opens up on the 3rd floor, right outside the theater entrance. The AMC parking validation is $2 for the first 3 hours, and $12 for the first 5 hours.

Closed Caption and Assistive Listening/Descriptive Audio devices are available for select festival screenings. A sensory-friendly quiet room space will be available. It is located on the second floor, just past the red carpet. The room will be open October 17th–27th, will open 30 minutes before the first screening, and will close halfway through the last screening each day.
