Sensory-Friendly Performance of Blue Man Group Las Vegas

Saturday, June 23, 2024

Support the Grant a Gift Autism Foundation with a special sensory-friendly performance of Blue Man Group Las Vegas.

Slight modifications will be made to the Blue Man Group performance including reduced sound and light levels at various moments in the show. The Blue Men will limit their audience interaction, and their approach to the audience is more subdued. Earplugs will be available upon request, and quiet zones will be available in the lobby for anyone seeking a sensory break from the high-energy show.

Please note: Strobe lights will be used in this performance.

Tickets are available for $36 for any seat. For every ticket sold, Blue Man Group will donate $20 to the Grant a Gift Autism Foundation of Las Vegas.

Thank you to all the incredible participants of the 15th annual Race for Hope on Saturday, April 13th!

Your support means the world to us and helps our mission to spread acceptance and support for individuals with autism. But the race isn't over yet! You can still make a meaningful impact by donating to help us continue Grant a Gift's mission. Every contribution counts towards providing vital resources and support for individuals and families affected by autism.
