Rochester Red Wings News Release
ROCHESTER, NY - The Rochester Red Wings are proud to announce the return of Autism Awareness Day, Saturday, April 19, when the Red Wings host the Worcester Red Sox at 1:05 p.m.
Now in its eighth year, Autism Awareness Day is a cornerstone of the Red Wings' continued efforts to make the ballpark a more inclusive and welcoming space for all fans. On this special afternoon, Innovative Field will feature fan-friendly adjustments designed to provide a more comfortable, sensory-considerate experience for individuals and families affected by autism.
Key modifications for the day include:
Lower volume levels throughout the stadium
Altered in-game production to minimize abrupt sound effects and intense video board displays
A request for fans to refrain from bringing noise makers to the ballpark
A Safe Zone is open all game long in Club 3,000 on the Suite Level for those seeking a quiet reprieve
Section 218 will be designated as the Autism Aware Section, reserved exclusively for guests with family members on the autism spectrum
In addition to this special event, the Red Wings are proud to offer their Sensory Suite at every home game throughout the 2025 season. Located on the Suite Level along the first base side, the Sensory Suite is a thoughtfully designed space featuring:
Soft paint tones and muted Red Wings branding
Comfortable Yogibo seating and lava lamps
Two mounted interactive iPads and a new smart TV
A wall-mounted interactive display
New window shades for light and sensory control
Access to outdoor seating for fans wishing to enjoy the atmosphere in a more comfortable manner
The Sensory Suite is available for just $270 per game, which includes eight tickets and two VIP parking passes.
"We're committed to ensuring Innovative Field is a welcoming place for every member of our community," said DAN MASON, General Manager of the Red Wings. "Autism Awareness Day is a meaningful tradition for us, and the Sensory Suite allows that spirit of inclusivity to extend throughout the entire season."
