The Facts

Southbank Centre will host 'Relaxed Sessions: A Festive Cracker' on December 5, 2026, at 11am in The Clore Ballroom. The free, ticketed family event features games, dances, and craft activities led by multi-talented performer Len Blanco, a drag king, musician, comedian, and actor. The session is designed as a sensory-adapted space for children and families with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), offering a smaller group experience. Tickets are available to book from eight days before the event.

The Signal

The event is part of Southbank Centre's ongoing Relaxed Sessions series, which provides inclusive programming for families who benefit from a calmer, adapted environment. By offering free access and a 'What to Expect' guide, the institution aims to reduce barriers for neurodivergent audiences and those with additional needs. This reflects a broader trend among major cultural venues to prioritize accessibility and sensory-friendly experiences, ensuring that festive celebrations are welcoming to all.
