Virtual Reality experiences for all ages and interests. We have a huge studio with driving/flight simulators with motion platforms. Come get up close with an 80ft whale while surrounded by sea-life while standing on the bottom of the ocean. Challenge yourself in a virtual puzzle room or just fight some zombies with friends. Parties, corporate events and functions accommodated.

Wonderful film at great location. Love the community atmosphere of the Regal. This event was a fund raiser and as often I met many friends and acquaintances who were also attending. I took my neighbour - fist time- they loved it.
