Emagine Together Screenings

Emagine Together screenings offer a relaxed, inclusive movie experience tailored for families, children, and teens with sensory needs in addition to new parents looking for a stress-free outing with their little ones.

Emagine Together screenings will offer a sensory-friendly environment with brighter house lights providing a well-lit theatre for added comfort, and lower sound levels for those with more sensitive ears. The screenings will also offer a welcoming atmosphere where guests will have freedom to move around, so they can stretch, dance, or step out as needed. They welcome vocal expression allowing guests to talk and sign and are device-friendly, allowing phones and tablets to be used to provide additional comfort or communication for guests. Finally, Emagine Together screenings provide guests with a judgement free zone, where it’s no worry if your child is crying, snacking, or even needing a diaper change. No matter if this is your baby’s first movie or a chance to unwind, Emagine Together offers a welcoming and stress-free experience for everyone in attendance.
