Sensory - Friendly Store Visits
A quieter way to enjoy video games.
At LA Video Games, we believe everyone deserves the opportunity to enjoy video games in an environment that feels comfortable, welcoming, and stress-free.
For many children, teens, and adults with autism or sensory sensitivities, busy stores, loud noises, bright lights, and crowded spaces can sometimes make shopping overwhelming. We understand that every person experiences the world differently, and our goal is to create a space where everyone feels accepted, respected, and welcome.
That's why we offer private Sensory-Friendly Store Visits by appointment. Whether it's before we open, after we close, or another arranged time based on availability, families can enjoy a quieter shopping experience, browse at their own pace, and take the time they need without the distractions of a busy store.
Gaming has always brought people together. We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to experience the joy of gaming in a way that feels comfortable for them.
Why This Matters to Me
This program exists because of my son, Elias.
Elias has autism, and through our family's experiences, I've learned that something as simple as visiting a store can feel very different depending on a person's sensory needs. What may seem like an ordinary shopping trip for one family can be overwhelming for another because of bright lights, loud noises, or a busy environment.
As a parent, those experiences changed the way I see accessibility and reminded me that even small changes can make a meaningful difference. That's what inspired me to bring Sensory-Friendly Store Visits to LA Video Games.
My hope is to provide a quiet, welcoming environment where individuals and families can enjoy video games without feeling rushed, judged, or overwhelmed. Whether you're visiting for the first time or you've been gaming your whole life, I want every person who walks through our doors to feel respected, understood, and genuinely welcome.
Gaming has always brought people together. My hope is that LA Video Games will always be a place where everyone feels welcome and has the opportunity to experience the joy of gaming in a way that feels comfortable for them.
