“See, it’s a crazy world we’re living in, and I just can’t see that half of us immersed in sin is all we have to give these futures made of virtual insanity.” So remarked Jay Kay or Jamiroquai, all the way back in 1996, when the world was arguably considerably less crazy than it is today.
Ever ahead of his time, Kay does, however, half allude to a solution – one which had barely been dreamt of all those 21 years ago. That is the escape into virtual reality, and it has been causing something of a stir of late, with the VR epidemic dominating recent technological thinking.
A company at the forefront of these developments is The VR Concept, who have created an impressive host of games and experiences which transport their participants into different dimensions. A number of these will be available to try at AirHop, the world’s largest trampoline park located in Patchway, between the 22nd-30th July.

These titles include Rec Room Quest, Audio Shied, Vesper Peak and many more, all designed to bring different aspects of immersive gameplay to the fore. Some of them require longer sessions to do them justice, so pre-booking is required. To book a slot for two people, click here.
And when you’re not playing, AirHop’s network of 135 interconnected trampolines should be satisfactory enough to keep you sufficiently entertained. There are also slam-dunk lanes, dodge ball courts, battle beams, foam pit lanes, slack lines and a ‘Total Wipeout’ zone.
