🔑 Answer key (for teachers)
  1. How many of these venues list a sensory room?
    4
  2. How many list ASL interpreters on request?
    4
  3. What is a sensory room, and who might use one?
    A quiet, low-stimulation space for fans who become overwhelmed by noise and crowds, such as some autistic fans or people with PTSD.
  4. The Americans with Disabilities Act (1990) applies to US venues. Which column in the table relates most directly to what the ADA requires, and which features go beyond it?
    ASL interpreters: the ADA requires effective communication for deaf and hard-of-hearing guests. KultureCity certification and sensory rooms are voluntary extras that go beyond the law.
  5. Rogers Centre is in Toronto. Does the ADA apply there? What might apply instead?
    No, the ADA is US law. In Ontario, the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) applies.
  6. Choose one venue and write a short letter recommending one improvement, using evidence from the table.
    Answers vary; strong letters name a specific gap, explain who it affects and propose a realistic fix.

Teacher notes

  • All features come from each venue's official guest guide, checked October 2026.
  • “Not listed” means the official pages didn't mention it, not necessarily that it doesn't exist.
