Sensory help, in the arena's words

“We have a sensory friendly room available for use during all events.”

“The room is outfitted with bean bags, visual light panels, activity panels, bubble walls, and a custom tactile artwork created by an autistic artist.”

“Complimentary ear plugs are offered at Guest Services in sections 116 & 216 located on the concourse.”

  • The sensory room is reached through Guest Services outside section 116, so start there rather than looking for a door on your own.
  • There's no re-entry, so the sensory room is your break spot once you're inside.
  • Strollers aren't allowed, and bags can be no bigger than 5 by 9 inches; diaper bags and medical bags are allowed after a search.
