"Picturehouse were one of the first cinemas to host autism friendly screenings, launching them in 2008. Being inclusive and welcoming is part of our culture. We’re thrilled to partner with Dimensions so we, and other cinemas, can all work together to help more autistic people enjoy the cinema.”

What makes a Picturehouse cinema screening autism-friendly?

Sometimes you might also see an autism-friendly screening being described as a relaxed screening or a sensory-friendly screening. This means there are some adjustments in place to help reduce the stress and sensory input people with autism and other sensory sensitivities can experience.
