Relaxed Screenings

Sensory & Autism Friendly Cinema at The Light Banbury

Our relaxed screenings are designed to create a more sensory-friendly environment than typical cinema screenings.

To make these screenings more comfortable

  • the sound is turned down low
  • the lights are only dimmed, not turned off
  • the film will play without ads or trailers
  • guests are welcome to move around or change seats if they wish

Join us for our Relaxed leisure sessions, designed for guests with autism or sensory sensitivity and their friends to enjoy where you can experience a calm and quiet environment with dimmed lights and reduced sound.

We will be running 60 minute bowling sessions each Sunday morning at 9am.
