PHILADELPHIA, PA — Sandbox VR is set to open its newest location in the heart of Philadelphia. Located at 1712 Walnut Street in the bustling Rittenhouse neighborhood, this marks Sandbox VR’s 60th global location. The grand opening is scheduled for Friday, April 18, 2025.
To celebrate the launch, the company is offering a limited-time promotion. Guests who pre-book their slots by April 17, 2025, can enjoy a 30% discount using the promo code OPEN30. Those who pre-book will also be entered into a drawing to win a free year of Sandbox VR experiences. Prices following the promotion will range between $55 and $65 per person.
Sandbox VR offers a social gaming experience unlike any other, using state-of-the-art virtual reality technology to immerse groups of up to six players in a shared virtual world. Players wear VR headsets and motion sensors that capture their full-body movements, allowing them to interact as they explore and battle in unique, fantastical environments. “This patented technology provides realism that’s simply not attainable with at-home VR systems,” the company explained.
Guests can choose from nine exhilarating VR experiences, including Rebel Moon: The Descent, Deadwood PHOBIA, Seekers of the Shard: Dragonfire, and family-friendly favorites like Squid Game Virtuals and Curse of Davy Jones. Each experience is designed in-house by industry veterans to deliver excitement and adventure. Guests will also receive personalized highlight videos of their gameplay, offering a keepsake of the laughs, thrills, and action.
“As someone who grew up in the area, I know how perfectly Sandbox VR fits Philadelphia’s vibrant tech and entertainment scene,” said Rob Cooper, CEO and Founder of LOL Entertainment and a native of the Philadelphia area. “Transforming this historic Walnut Street space into a cutting-edge virtual reality destination shows our commitment to Philadelphia’s growth as a hub for innovative entertainment.”
The Rittenhouse location will bring more than just entertainment to the city. It will contribute to local economic growth by creating jobs and offering residents and visitors a new way to experience group gaming technology. Backed by celebrities like Justin Timberlake, Katy Perry, Kevin Durant, and Will Smith, Sandbox VR is quickly becoming a leader in location-based VR entertainment.
