The Glasgow Royal Concert Hall is fitted with infrared assisted hearing systems. The system is offered as a high quality audio alternative to our induction loop system and has been specially designed for use in a large auditorium, via a headset receiver.
It can be used as a stand-alone hearing enhancement, or as an addition to an existing hearing aid. Headsets should be pre-booked through the Conference Secretariat and can be collected from the registration desk in the Strathclyde Suite Foyer on the day.
