We are delighted to announce an exciting new initiative at Palace Cinemas Ballina Fair: Sensory Screenings! These special film sessions are designed to be ALL INCLUSIVE, ensuring a welcoming and comfortable environment for everyone, especially those who benefit from sensory-friendly settings.
Sensory Screenings will take place in the afternoon on the last Sunday of every month. Our aim is to provide a fun and enjoyable movie experience for all families, including individuals with sensory sensitivities.
Here’s what you can expect from our Sensory Screenings:
- Dimmed Lighting: The lighting in the cinema will be dimmed instead of completely dark, creating a more comfortable viewing atmosphere.
- Subtitles: All films will be shown with subtitles to aid in comprehension and enjoyment.
- Quieter Sound: The volume will be set lower than usual to avoid overwhelming sensory input.
Due to limited family-friendly options this month, our next Sensory Screening on Sunday, October 27th at 2pm, will be a repeat of the critically acclaimed animation, The Wild Robot rated PG. We believe that movies are for everyone, and we’re committed to making our screenings as inclusive as possible.
