Did you know that Vox Cinemas in the UAE partnered with Dubai Autism Centered to offer Sensory Friendly Cinema showings? Here are some of the Sensory Friendly Modifications they offer:
- LIGHTING: Instead of the lighting being bright or off, they stay dim to avoid a harsh transition
- SOUND: The sounds of the movie is turned down
- SEATING: Seat spacing is created to give families and individuals more space to move around when needed
- SNACKS: You are allowed to bringing your own snacks
- ALLOWED ITEMS: You are allowed to bring in fidgets & comfort items
- SHOWING: No ads are displayed before the movie starts
Watch the fantastic video below from Khalid Al Ameri and family for a wonderful review of the new Sensory Friendly showings at Vox Cinemas!
Sensory Friendly Showings are available on Saturdays from 12PM in KIDS across Mall of the Emirates, Yas Mall, City Centre Sharjah, City Centre Fujairah, Al Jimi Mall and City Centre Ajman.
