My Way Matinee Sensory-Friendly Movies at Regal Cinemas

Don't Miss Regal Cinemas's Sensory-Friendly Screenings of The Incredibles 2 This Weekend!

Seeing a movie in theatres is such a fun experience, but for children with sensory processing disorders, autism, and other special needs, as well as those who aren't big fans of the dark or a lot of noise, the cinema isn't the most comfortable place to be. Because every child and their family should be able to enjoy a brand-new movie in theatres, Regal Cinemas is introducing the My Way Matinee program, a sensory-friendly movie-going experience that will feature lower sounds and brighter lights in the theatres.

In addition to the volume and lighting adjustments, those visiting the theatres for these once-a-month showings will be able to dance, sing, and shout along with the characters in the films. Each My Way Matinee show will begin at 10:30 a.m. local time, and the best news? Tickets will only cost $6.50.

"Regal strives to be 'The Best Place to Watch a Movie,' and that means creating positive, lasting memories for all moviegoers," Sandra Heinig, director of public relations at Regal, said in a press release. "We are continually expanding this program to include even more theatres, because we want every movie fan to feel comfortable and have fun at Regal."
