Makes: Make information about access performances available to everyone on your website
To attract the widest possible range of audiences, accessibility needs to be built into your entire customer journey — starting with what people see online.
This recipe helps you highlight accessible performances clearly on your website, whether you’re using a full web integration or a Spektrix Subsite. It ensures your audiences can easily find performances with the features they need, like captioning or audio description.
- Instance Attributes set up in Spektrix
- Bulk Instance Update Tool
- Either a Spektrix-integrated website using the API or a Spektrix Subsite
- Web developer support (if using the API)
30 minutes
- Promote access performances more clearly
- Increase attendance from disabled and neurodivergent audiences
- Show your commitment to inclusion from the first click
- Instance Attributes: Labels applied to specific performance instances (e.g. “captioned,” “audio described”)
- Bulk Instance Update Tool: Makes it easier to apply attributes to many instances at once
- API / Web Integration: Allows your custom website to display access info automatically
- Spektrix Subsite: A Spektrix-managed site that can show access labels without custom development
For both methods:
- Create Instance Attributes for the types of access performances you offer (e.g. "Captioned," "Relaxed," "Audio Described").
- Set the attribute type to Checkbox and make it Visible in the API.
- Add a clear description so your internal team knows what each one is for.
For the Spektrix Subsite, be sure to use the exact naming conventions provided in this article.
If you're using the API:
- Apply your new Instance Attributes to relevant performances. Use the Bulk Instance Update Tool to save time.
- Work with your web developer to display those attributes on your website. You might show labels such as “Audio Described” or “Relaxed Performance” next to event listings.
- Refer to Spektrix API documentation for the technical details.
Ongoing: Apply these attributes when setting up new events and instances.
If you're using a Spektrix Subsite:
- Use the Bulk Instance Update Tool to apply your access attributes to relevant performances.
- Your Subsite will automatically display labels for those attributes (e.g. “Captioned,” “Audio Described”).
- Ongoing: Always assign relevant attributes when creating new events.
