ICA is closed from the 30 May – 3 June inclusive.
Key safety information
We have worked hard to ensure that the ICA is a Covid-safe venue, and have followed all the safety and hygiene measures set out in the latest government directives to make our building as safe as possible. It should go without saying that to everyone here at the ICA, the health and safety of our visitors and staff are of paramount importance.
We’ve put together a brief guide to the changes we’ve made in response to Covid-19 – along with the advice and regulations you should follow when you visit. In particular, please note that if you are able to do so, you must wear a face covering at all times within the building.
Thank you for your patience and support during this challenging year. We can’t wait to see you again.
Throughout the building
Contactless hand sanitiser units and bottled hand sanitiser are available throughout the ICA – please use them regularly.
We’ve applied long-lasting anti-viral lacquer to all handles and other touch points, and will be cleaning and disinfecting surfaces regularly throughout each day.
Cinema 1, Cinema 2 and Theatre
As of 1 October, we are no longer operating with reduced capacities in our auditoriums. This means for busy screenings, you may be sitting close to others. Please rest assured that the auditoriums are well ventilated; we have recently upgraded the fresh air and HVAC systems.
We’ll also disinfect our cinema seats in between every screening and performance, and have allowed extra time between screenings to do so.
Exhibition spaces
We are retaining pre-booked time slots for our exhibitions to ensure the spaces do not get too crowded, as we want you to have a comfortable visit.
Toilets
Our toilets have had a makeover including new contactless flushes, soap, taps and hand-dryers, and we have an enhanced cleaning regime in place.
