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! Join us for a special afternoon of music as we explore the musical superpowers of melody, rhythm, dynamics, and harmony! With the help of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, actors from Pink Umbrella Theater, and music from composers ranging from Beethoven and Mozart to John Williams and Michael Giacchino, we’ll discover that we all just might have our own special superpowers! Join us up to an hour prior to the performance to pick up a free Welcome Bag and enjoy special pre-concert activities, all with the aid of trained MSO Ambassadors!

Please register by May 15 to receive free tickets.
