CONCERT DETAILS
The Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra is excited to announce the return of our Sensory Friendly Concert.
Sensory friendly concerts are designed for people of any age on the autism spectrum or with a sensory sensitivity and their families, but all are welcome! Concert modifications include dimmed house lights remaining on during the performance, flexible seating, relaxed house rules, on-stage hosts, available sensory kits, noise reduction headphones, quiet areas, concert social narratives, and more. Patrons are encouraged to come early and enjoy an hour of special pre-concert activities.
We’ll enjoy the ultimate spring break get-away – through music! What’s your favorite kind of cruise? A Caribbean cruise? A European river cruise? Or maybe a Disney cruise? We’ll do it all with the help of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra and our onstage cruise directors!
