What we offer on a school trip


Sandbox VR is the world’s most advanced virtual reality venue on the planet. Located in the Grand Central Shopping Centre in the heart of Birmingham, it features 6 virtual reality arenas where you can transport yourselves into the most immersive gaming experience imaginable.
Each of the 8 experiences available combines full-body motion capture and high-quality haptics to provide unprecedented realism that’s not possible with home VR systems or other location-based VR venues. Groups of up to six can transport themselves into their own action movie, freely roaming the VR space as they enter exclusive virtual worlds and rely on each other to succeed in games specifically designed for interaction, problem solving abilities and teamwork. Unique, active, something totally out of this world.
