A small Denver music venue with free headphones at the Front Desk and sensory friendly concerts where the lights go up, the sound goes down, and sitting still is optional. One date this winter, and it's a good one.
Sensory supports. Free headphones at the Front Desk.
Hours
Front Desk: Monday to Thursday noon to 9 pm and during live events; Friday to Sunday during live events only. Café, Thursday to Sunday during concerts and events: 4 to 9 pm.
“We offer sensory friendly concerts where we turn the lights up and turn down the sound down so individuals and their families can move around, dance, and sing along in a fun, judgment free environment. There is no ‘shushing’ allowed and sitting still is optional.”
“Sound muffling headphones and/or earplugs are available at no charge. Please see our Front Desk staff to reserve upon arrival.”
The next sensory friendly concert is Sat Dec 5 at 11 am, and it's the only one on the calendar through spring 2027.
Swallow Hill doesn't say when regular concerts are quieter. At past sensory friendly shows Swallow Hill has offered a side room for breaks and wider rows; ask at the Front Desk when you arrive.
Free sound muffling headphones or earplugs: ask the Front Desk when you arrive.
At sensory friendly concerts the lights go up and the sound goes down. Moving, dancing and singing along are welcome, and sitting still is optional.
You can drop off in front of the building, then park. The free lot is across Yale Avenue at the southeast corner of Yale and Lincoln, a busy intersection. Don't park in the Colore lot.
Three accessible spots are closer than the lot: one under the sign in front of the building, two at the southwest corner of E Yale Ave and S Lincoln St.
Daniels Hall and Tuft Theatre can be reached by wheelchair. Quinlan Café and the basement classrooms are stairs only.
Wheelchair accessible restrooms are in the lobby and on the second floor, through Daniels Hall. Gender neutral restrooms are in the basement and on the second floor.
Seats closer to the speakers or performers are available for people with hearing loss.
Concerts at Swallow Hill are all ages unless the listing says otherwise.
Licensed service animals are welcome.
Drinks and packaged snacks from the café can go into the halls, but the café is open only Thursday to Sunday evenings, and outside alcohol isn't allowed. For the Saturday morning show, call 303-777-1003 to check on bringing your kid's own snacks.
