SPECIAL NEEDS RESTAURANTS

Inclusion Dining is a sensory-friendly dining experience designed to include and accommodate people with autism and other special needs. Inclusion Dining features accommodations like music played at a lower volume, staggered seating times to reduce waiting, modified picture menus, social stories to support ordering and waiting, table-top activities, therapists onsite for support and suggestions, and much more. Special needs restaurants allow families to enjoy a night out in a warm, welcome environment that is free from judgement. It is also a chance for families to network, connect, and share resources in an inclusive community space.

Inclusion Festival is the nation’s first and only music and wellness festival designed to include and accommodate individuals with autism and other special needs. Through our festival and our many year-round initiatives we aim to provide unique, immersive experiences that are often inaccessible to individuals impacted by special needs, while also providing the general community with an all-encompassing educational and uplifting experience that cultivates compassion, understanding, acceptance, and systems of support for individuals with autism and demonstrates what is possible when communities embrace inclusion and accessibility.

Inclusion Festival is for EVERY body!

Inclusion Festival is a fiscally-sponsored 501(c)3 non-profit organization operating in partnership with Accessible Festivals, Inc. Together, we are dedicated to making the world more accessible and inclusive through education and experiences.

All donations to Inclusion Festival are tax-deductible.
