If you are a virgin to virtual reality and augmented reality and wondering what all the fuss is about than this is the perfect event to come to. It is meant to be a fun way to understand virtual reality and augmented reality without needing to listen or participate in geeky stuff like developer talks. Will have experiences powered by the likes of Samsung Gear VR, Playstation VR, Oculus, and more to allow everyone to mingle while also experiencing what it is like to be Batman, to travel to another part of the world through telepresence, and be transported inside a movie.

Today's meetup is done at a licensed venue, you will have plenty of time to socialise with others. Tickets for this one only event start from as little as $5 per person. (See below for ticket details)
