After stepping into the TARDIS, players will interact with the Doctor themselves and will try to pilot the spacecraft – which is temperamental at the best of times – before embarking on an epic adventure to solve the mystery behind the ‘Reality Virus’.

During the event, visitors will use HTC’s newly released VR headset, the VIVE Cosmos, which is built to be the highest performance and most versatile headset on the market.

Each 30 minute slot will include a 15 minute experience. Please arrive 15 minutes before your slot, slots will be held 5 minutes after the start time, after which time they will be re-allocated.
