GSC is creating a safe, accessible, and inclusive space for neurodivergent audiences with sensory-friendly movie screenings, which are available every second Sunday of the month at selected GSC theatres.
Lowered volumes
Dimmed auditorium lighting
Removing advertisements and trailers before the film
Reduced number of guests in hall
Play halls feature comfortable seating and an in-hall playground area. All halls come equipped with a nursery room, which can also be used as a safe room for your child to take a timeout if necessary. Additionally, our dedicated staff have been trained to provide assistance for our special guests, so please do not hesitate to reach out to us for help.
