Just a Reminder!

Important bus parking procedures and chaperone policy listed below, for further information refer to the Theatre Bristol Blue Book.

Please remember to inform your bus drivers of the correct location to unload and load students (behind the Paramount Center for the Arts on Shelby Street) and where to park (the Norfolk and Southern railroad parking lot past the trainstation). Please share the map and instructions with your bus drivers. Thanks.

Please limit the number of chaperones with your group. Every seat taken by a chaperone robs a deserving child of the chance to see a performance. Remember, your field trip is for the enrichment of the children. Please make sure your chaperones understand that they won't be seated with your class. All parents/chaperones will be seated in our VIP section in the theatre, once all the students and teachers are seated. Theatre Bristol reserves the right to limit the number of chaperones attending a performance. Unfortunately, there may instances when chaperones can't be seated due to the number of students in attendence.

Bus Loading/Unloading:
Unload students and teachers on Shelby Street, behind the Paramount Center for the Arts. Busses should unload students on Shelby Street no later than 9:10 for the 9:30 show and no later than 11:10 for the 11:30 show. Please do your part to arrive on time so we may start shows on time. Students and teachers, after unloading, proceed to the Paramount Center for the Arts or Theatre Bristol's ARTspace via Bank Street (the alley).

Special Needs:
Teachers/Aides accompanying special needs students may unload directly in front of the Paramount Center for the Arts or Theatre Bristol's ARTspace. Busses/Vans may then proceed to the unloading zone or to the parking area.

Inclement Weather:
In the event of inclement weather, it is the responsibility of the Lead Teacher or a school representative to call the Theatre Bristol office, 423.968.4977, if you are going to be delayed or must cancel.
