Sensory Friendly Hours
20 February, 2022 | 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
We know that a typical visit to Esplora Interactive Science Centre can be quite challenging for those who feel overwhelmed with loud sounds and bright lights. That is why, at Esplora we have created the Sensory Friendly Hours, during which we adjust the ambiance inside Esplora to allow neuro-diverse children and adults to explore the science centre and fully enjoy everything that we have to offer in a peaceful atmosphere. Our team are trained and will always be on hand to support parents and caregivers if ever needed.
During the visit, you can participate in one of our Workshops or Science shows that have been specifically adapted for Sensory Friendly Hours. You can also enjoy our Planetarium and Universe experience if you would like!
Our first Sensory Friendly Hours of the year will be held on Sunday 20th February between 9am and 11am. If you would like to visit Esplora during these hours, kindly fill in this form: https://forms.gle/QeT39Bm9ybJiZSmM9
