About our Autism-friendly ‘relaxed’ screenings:
An Autism-friendly screening is where people can watch a film in a relaxed environment.
They are different from regular film screenings because:
- the lights are low instead of completely off, so you can still see where you’re going
- the volume is a little lower than a standard screening
- you can move around the cinema freely as you wish during the screening
- you can leave the cinema room during the screening and return without having to worry
- you can make noise, stim, and enjoy yourself
- there is a friendly atmosphere
- there are people around if you need any help
These screenings are for anyone who would feel safe and welcome in this environment.
At Electric Palace, we think the cinema should be for everyone, that’s why we offer Autism-friendly screenings.
