The Actual Reality Arcade has been touring festivals throughout the UK and abroad since May 2017.
After 3 very busy years of touring from 2017 to 2019 and some very exciting destinations planned for 2020 , Sadly ( like nearly everything else) the arcade is currently in lockdown and it is uncertain when it will be able to return.
It is now estimated that over 100,000 people have played on the games since the arcade opened. Countless more people have enjoyed watching too.
It has been a massive success and hopefully will be back soon to bring more joy
Below is a photo from every event the arcade has appeared at over the past 4 years…
