New Sesame Street place has opened its doors for little ones in San Diego last month and it’s been designed specially for autistic guests. It’s a 17-acre theme park , where visitors will be amazed to see their childhood favourite TV programme to come alive with all the characters in place.
We’ve really made a special effort to make sure that everybody understands what type of experience each of our attractions offers so that regardless of who you are, you can determine whether or not it’s the right experience for you.
The park features 18 rides and exciting water attractions, including family-friendly rollercoaster and a 500,000-gallon wave pool. It will be open the whole year round.
For guests with impaired mobility, there is a sensory guide, as well as accessibility guide at every attraction. The reason for that is the sensory sensitivities varies from person to person.
What we want to do is empower the visitors to not only feel comfortable going to that location because they know what to expect, but we also want them to be able to choose their own adventure.
It’s the second theme park of it’s kind in the U.S., with the first Sesame Place being opened in 1980 near Philadelphia.
