I had this once with an employer. And afterwards they prepared a buffet in a local bowling alley.
I had panic as the invite arrived to the moment I met the organizers of the event. They looked at my nametag and took me on the side “You have autism? If it gets to loud, just walk out and come back if you feel better. And for the evening event, if it is to much tell us, we have other activities”.
And sure enough, it was not nearly as bad as I feared. I even got warned and send out on loud or close up activities. And for the evening event, I went up playing laser tag with the HR Teamlead while the rest was in the bowling alley.
