The Lobero Theatre is equipped with state-of-the-art hearing loop technology. The technology lets hearing aid users receive sound signals directly through their t-coil enabled hearing aids. As most hearing aids include a t-coil as standard, users do not need any additional equipment to access sound in a looped venue.

A Phonic Ear System makes these available at all times for patrons who request them. When possible, patrons should make their device reservation at the Box Office when purchasing advance tickets; this allows for adequate supply to be available. Devices may be picked up from the Box Office up to two hours prior to performance time.
