Hearing-Safe & Sensory-Friendly

Headphones, drawing, and video games at our sensory-friendly area

BARK aspires to be a hearing-safe and sensory-friendly event. We want everyone to be able to participate without experiencing sensory overload or risking hearing loss – we don’t think we have to be loud to sound good or have fun!

  • BARK’s DJ coordinators are committed to maintaining safe volume levels and will be monitoring and adjusting our sound system at all times throughout the event. If at any point you feel that the music volume is potentially unsafe, please notify BARK staff immediately.
  • Free earplugs will be available.
  • We will have a quiet seating area away from the main stage with activities! Feel free to use this area to take a break or just hang out!
