FanProof verdictFor Paradise Theatre in Toronto, book the ground-floor accessible seating area if you need step-free access; the balcony is not accessible. The accessible washroom is in the lobby, and Green P Carpark 84 is directly behind the theater. For Candlelight or other externally produced events, arrange ticketing and access with that organizer rather than the cinema box office.
