Sensory Friendly shows will be be the first show of the day on select weekends at our Greenbrier Mall (Chesapeake) and Chester locations. Films and dates will be announced as the information becomes available. Tickets will go on sale Tue the week of each event; a link will be posted above to those ticketing pages.
The volume will be lowered and the lights will be kept on a dim-not-dark setting throughout the movie. This becomes safe space where our guests are free to express themselves by singing, crying, dancing, walking around, talking or shouting – whatever they need to do to feel comfortable and enjoy the movie-going experience.
Movies sometimes have drastic changes in light and loud sounds. These kinds of disturbances can set off outbursts and episodes in people with sensory sensitivities. We want our guests to sit back, relax and enjoy the latest movies in a comfortable setting that meets their needs.
Sensory Friendly shows are an opportunity for sensory-sensitive guests and their families to get the movie theater experience that's been so elusive for so long, with the added bonus of the dining option available at all Cinema Cafe locations.
Sensory Friendly Shows occur as Cinema Cafe has family-friendly movies to offer. We encourage you to check this page for upcoming schedules, or sign up for our e-Newsletter. Sensory Friendly show announcements will also be posted on the Cinema Cafe's social media channels.
Dates and times to be announced. Always at Chester & Greenbrier locations.
