Sight Loss Audio Description
To help our blind and partially sighted guests enjoy their visit to HOYTS, we offer audio description (AD) for most movies. Audio Description is available at all HOYTS cinemas, look for the AD icon next to the session times.
Open Captioning
Open Caption (OPEN CAP) sessions feature text and sound descriptions displayed on the cinema screen and are visible to all cinema guests. Open Captions is available at all HOYTS cinemas, look for the OC icon next to the session times.
Closed Captioning
Our Closed Caption (CC) sessions provide guests with text and sound descriptions displayed on a small LED display screen with a bendable support arm, that fits into the seat cup holder. Closed Caption sessions run at all HOYTS locations, look for the CC icon next to the session times.
Sensory Screenings
We’re delighted to host special sensory screenings one Sunday morning each month at all HOYTS cinema locations. We’ll dim the lights and soften the volume so anyone with autism or sensory needs can feel safe in a calming and accepting environment. Our hope is that guests with sensory difficulties become more familiar with the cinema environment.
