Anyone can purchase tickets for our Sensory Friendly Sessions but we do want to note there are some changes for these sessions. These thoughtfully curated sessions provide a more comfortable and supportive experience by reducing common sensory triggers:

  • Instrumental music will be played at a lower volume to minimize auditory overstimulation.
  • Blinking lights will be turned off, while essential lighting remains on for safety.
  • KultureCity sensory bags will be available in limited quantities on a first-come, first-served basis.
  • A designated quiet room will be available for those needing a break.
  • Enhanced directional signage will be placed to provide clear guidance around the venue.
  • TV screens will display static images with minimal or no movement to reduce visual distractions.
