This event was shared with us by our friends from The Lowry.
On Thursday 13th August, Lowry in Salford will host its first venue-wide Relaxed Day for families who want to experience all that Lowry has to offer in a relaxed, more comfortable environment.
The day is for all families who would like to visit Lowry in a less busy environment and will have considerations to support accessible needs for those with sensory processing differences, neurological conditions, and neurodivergent visitors. As the day is full of family friendly activities, Lowry is particularly looking forward to welcoming children with Special Educational Needs and/or Disabilities (SEND), alongside their families, essential companions or carers.
More information can be found online on www.thelowry.com/lowry-relaxed-day or by phoning our Access Box Office on 0161 876 2183.
The day will include:
- Wild Things
- Lowry 360
- Modern Life: The LS Lowry Collection

Relaxed performances of Dear Zoo will take place in the Quays Theatre at 11am and 1:30pm. The show lasts 55 minutes.
Designed to create a more accessible experience, the performances will have a reduced capacity, adapted lighting and sound, and the house lights will remain on throughout.
Families are welcome to leave and re-enter the auditorium as needed, while a dedicated calm space with Dear Zoo-themed craft activities will be available nearby from one hour before each performance.
