Sensory Friendly Screenings

At Showcase Cinemas, we believe that the magic of cinema should be enjoyed by everyone. That’s why we’re proud to offer our Sensory Friendly Screenings - specifically designed to create a welcoming, comfortable, and stress-free environment for individuals with sensory sensitivities, autism, or other neurodivergent needs, along with their families and carers.

Whether it's a long-awaited family blockbuster or an animated favourite, you can experience the big screen in an environment adapted just for you!

We’ve adjusted the traditional cinema experience to keep things calm, predictable, and comfortable: soft lighting in the auditorium to create a calming atmosphere, lowered film volume to reduce sensory overload, only 2D films to avoid additional visual effects that can be overstimulating, no trailers, allowing for a more predictable and comfortable experience, bring your own food and drink to make the visit more personal and convenient, and free movement around the auditorium, so you can move about as needed.
