Chase Field opens sensory room with autism & sensory needs
May 8
A sensory room is now open at Chase Field, the home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The sensory room is located on the Diamond Level in left field. The room will feature sensory toys, interactive elements, comfortable seating, soundproofing and a trained fleet of staff to assist visitors.
For fans who wish to enjoy the game from their seats, the room will provide sensory items such as fidget toys and noise-canceling headphones. REA also designed a sensory room at State Farm Stadium, which opened in September 2024, offering a space dedicated to providing a sensory-friendly experience for fans with autism or sensory sensitivities.
Gabriela Salcido, the Founder of Roman Empire Agency, who designed the room alongside her husband, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss the new addition to the stadium.
